The 77 meter high building has no pillars? Dubai spends 900 million to build a new “world monument”

“See the future, change the future.”

"The most complex building in the world."

"The greatest invention in the world today."

"A rare design based on a algorithm in the world." Building."

Can you believe these four powerful phrases all describe the same building?

This building is from "oil-rich" Dubai. The Burj Khalifa, the tallest man-made building in the world, and Palm Island, the world's largest man-made island, are all classic creations of this magical Middle Eastern city. Recently, Dubai added a new landmark: the "Museum of the Future". >

A charming "Danfeng Eye" "The Museum of the Future" is the most beautiful building in the world! Sheikh Mohammed, the ruler of Dubai, commented on this building in Dubai which he is proud of. Considering its true appearance, I must. say that it is truly magnificent!

The construction area is 30,000 square meters and has a stainless steel facade.ble of more than 17,000 square meters, a building height of 77 meters and a total of 7 floors. The construction of a seemingly strange building with a huge area and an astronomical investment cost 500 million dirhams and a total of 900 million yuan.

The “Museum of the Future” looks like a hollow oval ring placed on a green mound. The green represents the vibrant earth, the oval building that stands on it represents human power, and the void in the middle of the building symbolizes the unknown future.

The wonderful appearance of the entire museum fully meets the designer's original design intention, seeing the future and changing the future.

With its unique oval shape and the unknown tension brought by the "hollow", the entire museum is like a phoenix eye, observing the light-speed development of this magical city.

However, compared to the unique appearance, the strange patterns on the surfacee of the building attract more attention. The seemingly chaotic geometric patterns, linked together, actually constitute a complete Arabic poem.

A magnificent poem looking towards the future of Dubai, written by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates.

This cursive-style Arabic poem is made of 1024 fire-resistant composite panels made with 3D printing technology.

Adhered to the silver stainless steel skin of the museum, this serendipitous beauty is difficult to describe in words.

What is worth mentioning is that these designs are not just for decoration. They also play an important role as museum display cases. During the day, dappled sunlight can shine through these windows into the interior.

At night, these windows are illuminated by 14 kilometers of LED lights. Group lighting, the effectis shocking and dramatic!

This unique way of treating light brings an extremely unexpected aesthetic effect, which can be considered the perfect combination of art and functionality.

In fact, before the official opening of the “Museum of the Future”, it had been hailed as an architectural marvel and received worldwide acclaim.

Last July, it was ranked among the 14 most beautiful museums in the world in a list of world museums selected by National Geographic magazine.

Of course, such a reputation cannot be due to its unique shape alone.

In fact, from the beginning of the design, Killa Design Studio and Buro Happold, responsible for the design of the "Future Museum", had already made bold remarks. The museum is to be built in “the most advanced building in the world”.

If the Burj Khalifa and the Palm Island mentioned above are architectural miraclesectural buildings built by Dubai with money. So this time it's different. It can be said that the Museum of the Future has touched humanity's current technological ceiling.

To complement this historic design, the designers developed a new parametric modeling tool. With the help of this tool, after repeated simulations, I finally found the ability to create the unique appearance and shape of the original design.

But do you think that once the architectural model is released, everything is over? This is just the beginning.

You should know that it is a 7-story building. The geometric structure of each floor and the cutouts of each calligraphy panel on the skin are completely different. Each structure and each panel must be shaped and manufactured individually.

The 1,024 panels with Arabic characters on the surface alone have a maximum width of 3 meters and a height of 9 meterses. The most complex ones require bidirectional folding, so only six panels can be produced per day. .

The complexity of the whole process can be imagined. Since the model is carefully calculated by computer, as soon as the building structure deviates by even a centimeter or a degree, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Additionally, since the Arabic characters on the building surface are 2D, when they are now cast onto a 3D building surface, the characters will naturally be distorted. If you want to look more beautiful, you have to keep trying, which takes time and a lot of work.

It is said that designers and panel suppliers have finally finalized the current structural design plan after a full year of repeated testing and adjustment. So, with the blessing of science and technology and the effortstireless from all sides, people erected an unprecedented "elevated" building without abandoning the pillars.

Without the unsightly pillars, the “Museum of the Future” interior space has been significantly expanded and exceptionally open.

Since the first sketches of the Museum of the Future, sustainability has guided its design. Through the design, passive storage of solar energy is achieved and the energy and water consumption in the building is also designed. There's even a large off-site solar power generation facility on top of the building.

The “Museum of the Future” suddenly built a 4,000 megawatt solar energy supply system. Providing energy to the entire museum is no child’s play.

Such a comprehensive design for the use of renewable energy also allowed the "Future Museum" to receive the highest rating of green buildings in the world.nde and platinum “LEED” certification, making it truly number 1 in the field. Middle East.

If you think that the “Museum of the Future” is world famous simply because of its novel appearance and superb construction technology, then you are wrong. This museum can be considered both internal and external.

The interior space of the 7th floor is rich and colorful, and each floor has a completely different exhibition theme. It brings people a variety of exposure experiences.

Entering this "Museum of the Future", we can not only feel the beautiful experience of light and shadow reflected by Arabic poetry, but also feel the shock of knowledge.

An immersive VR screen, a rare glimpse into space and bioengineering.

You can even find a science and technology museum just for children to encourage them to explore the future.

GoodOf course, this is just the tip of the iceberg. As a unique incubator for future innovation and design in Dubai and indeed the world.

In the “Museum of the Future” we can also see more technologies of the future, as well as creativity and future hypotheses in many other areas.

Whether it is appearance, meaning or technology, Dubai's "Future Museum" can carry the word "future".

On February 22, 2022, the “Museum of the Future” was opened to the public.
