The opening ceremony of the Museum of the Future witnessed a visual presentation, through several videos, that shed light on the concept of the museum, and the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum in making Dubai the most developed and advanced city, scientifically, technically and cognitively.

The Museum of the Future is an exceptional cultural landmark that constitutes a qualitative addition to the most important international landmarks and icons. It is also considered an unparalleled architectural masterpiece, thanks to its engineering design with a pioneering character ahead of its time, to formulate from now on the concept of future architecture.

The museum will also be an incubator for the genius and talents of scientists, thinkers and researchers, and the largest laboratory of its kind for bold ideas and perceptions, from which scientific and knowledge initiatives and projects will be launched to contribute to accelerating scientific development in various fields.

From an architectural perspective, the Museum is an engineering marvel, as it is the most fluid building in the world, as there are no sharp corners in its external structure, transcending all the limits of the ordinary in architecture, inventing new tools, and developing innovative technical approaches in design, implementation and construction.

The Museum of the Future will present a clear road map for the Emirate of Dubai and the UAE, through which it can anticipate the future of all vital sectors, and benefit from future opportunities, economically, developmentally, scientifically and humanly.

In addition, the Museum of the Future will attract the best international ideas and generate new concepts for Dubai, making it ahead of others.

The museum will also create a platform that links development, economic and societal initiatives with the latest scientific, cognitive and technical discoveries from a forward-looking perspective.

At the level of the international scientific community, the Museum of the Future will contribute to creating a global intellectual and knowledge movement on the investigation and foresight of future changes and trends in various scientific, economic, developmental and humanitarian fields, in addition to exploiting opportunities to benefit from these changes for the benefit of humanity, and deepening the foundations of knowledge cooperation, in addition to Investing in technical and knowledge development, to contribute to addressing global economic, health and humanitarian crises on a timely basis.

The Museum of the Future will also connect thinkers, specialists and futurists from around the world, by holding periodic forums and forums, research sessions and knowledge discussions that it hosts throughout the year.

The Museum of the Future will be the knowledge complex in Dubai, in which visions, perceptions and future human experiences flow.

The Museum of the Future consists of three main elements: the hill on which the building rises, the design of the external building, and the internal content of the museum. Within an integrated conceptual approach, the three elements collectively constitute the architectural, artistic, cognitive and philosophical value of the iconic building.

The height of the museum is 77 meters, without any columns or pillars inside, which is accelerated by the most fluid building in the world.

The museum is considered one of the most complex architectural projects in the world, as it is classified as an “engineering miracle.” It was implemented by adopting the “parametric design” model, which is a three-dimensional technology that relies on a sophisticated technical design that works by entering data and parameters for the building. It is intended to be designed, based on the engineering foundations known as algorithms, which are a considered number of sequential and logical mathematical steps, which allow processing specific variables, leading to solving specific problems, or addressing any modifications or challenges that arise during design or implementation, within a conceptual approach in construction, which combines Between architecture, sculpture and mathematics.

The facade of the museum consists of 1024 external pieces, extending over an area of ​​17,600 square meters, and it is made of stainless steel. The facade panels were produced using automated robotic arms, in a precedent in the region.

Each panel consisted of four layers, and the production of each panel took 16 process steps.

The Museum of the Future, in the basis of its design, reflects digital technology through the 1024 panels that cover its facade, as the number of these panels represents a basic unit of the digital information storage system in the memory of computers, which is a kilobyte, which is equal to 1024 bytes, or 1024 symbols or letters.

The museum is linked by two bridges, the first extends to the Emirates Towers with a length of 69 meters, and the second connects it to the Emirates Towers metro station with a length of 212 meters. The museum is fed with 4,000 megawatts of electricity that is produced through solar energy, through solar panels connected to the museum.

The facade of the Museum of the Future is illuminated by 14,000 meters of lighting lines, decorated with inspirational quotes, written in Arabic, by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, in Arabic calligraphy, making it the only building in the world that relies on “calligraphy” (the art of calligraphy) on its entire facade. .
