The World’s Most Beautiful Building Opens In Dubai Today

We’ve watched closely as it steadily came to life over nine years, undeterred by lockdowns. Today, Dubai’s Museum of the Future is finally ready to reveal itself to the world, promising to transport visitors along a narrative of the future through a series of interactive, technological innovation-inspired exhibitions.

New beginnings and buildings are the pillar stones of Dubai, and none more so than this one. Like every landmark in the city, the Museum of the Future started as an undefined, curious scaffolding, and yet it was soon clear that this was no regular project taking place. The unmistakable, Torus-shaped structure with its distinct Arabic calligraphy riveted the world’s attention long before it opened its doors.

What could possibly be going on inside? How was this architectural phenomenon, with its seemingly impossible structure, going to completely change how we view museums and our future, and offer us an entirely new and transformative experience of both?

Each floor of the museum guides us, like film sets from the future, through themed exhibitions encompassing lifestyle, travel, culture, science, health, and wellness trends of the generations to come, propelled by new technologies and design innovations.

The figures (spanning an area of 30,000 square metres, reaching 77 feet in height) are only outdone by the fascinating treasures and inimitable innovations, which now call this precious building home. This is a place where we can discover the future of humanity, in a city already well-known for setting all the trends and foundations for it.
