Before Opening… National Museum of Qatar wins prestigious award

Every year, a board of worldwide creatives are welcomed by Wallpaper* magazine to assign tasks and creators crosswise over 11 classes — from best inn configuration to best new private house — that have produced buzz in the structure network over the previous year. Chosen people speak to the world’s most energizing activities in engineering, items and plan advancements.

The 2019 WALLPAPER* Design Awards making a decision about board included such inventive illuminators as Danish whiz draftsman Bjarke Ingels, Canadian planner Philippe Malouin, South Korean craftsman Do Ho Suh and Senior Curator of the Department of Architecture and Design at the Museum of Modern Art Paola Antonelli, among others.

The National Museum of Qatar (NMoQ) was picked as the Best Roofscape victor because of its notorious structure, which originated from modeler Jean Nouvel’s interest with the desert rose — a characteristic crystalline development found in the sands of Qatar.

Addressing the magazine, Nouvel noticed that the idea was made in 3D from the beginning: “To formalize a rose was extremely troublesome, so the entire undertaking was done in programming… With its extraordinary bended plates, convergences and cantilevered edges, the exhibition hall is a totality, without a moment’s delay design, spatial and tactile.”

Set to open on March 28, NMoQ will observe Qatar’s past, present and future. The structure is an exceptionally mind boggling naturally engendering arrangement of interlocking plates that encompass the building, making a ring of display spaces circumnavigating a focal court.

With its sand-hued solid cladding, in concordance with the nearby desert condition, the building seems to develop out of the ground and be unified with it.

Inside the displays, the vivid and experiential NMoQ presents fine arts, uncommon and valuable items, narrative materials and intelligent learning chances to recount the tale of the general population and the place that is known for Qatar from most punctual occasions to today, offering voice to the nation’s rich legacy and culture and communicating a lively network’s goals for what’s to come.

Nouvel’s new 52,000-square-meter building consolidates as its focal point the reestablished noteworthy Palace of Sheik Abdullah receptacle Jassim Al Thani (1880-1957), child of the originator of current Qatar: a building that in previous occasions was both the home of the Royal Family and the seat of government, and consequently the site of the first National Museum.
