Described by the Prime Minister of Dubai as the "world's most beautiful building," the Museum of the Future is certainly one of the most striking projects we've seen in a while

    Dubai isn't exactly lacking in amazing buildings, but the recently completed Museum of the Future is sure to turn heads even in that architecturally innovative part of the world. The building takes the overall form of a big silvery eye and sports an intricate facade that's covered in Arabic calligraphy.

    The Museum of the Future was created by Killa Design, in collaboration with engineers Buro Happold, and was commissioned by the Dubai Future Foundation. The building is situated on top of a podium that's envisioned as a green hillside and consists of approximately 100 different drought-resistant local species of trees and plants.

 

 

The museum rises to a maximum height of 77 m (252 ft) and its stainless steel and glass exterior is adorned with inspirational quotes penned by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, which was turned into calligraphy by artist Mattar Bin Lahej.

The exterior is very complex and involved using robots to produce over a thousand different facade panels. It then took around 18 months to install the panels on the building's structural framework. LED lighting also illuminates the building's large void.
