french architect jean nouvel is responsible for the design of the new national museum of qatar.
his concept reflects the vanishing bedouin cultures of qatar, in an effort to embrace the realities of a rapidly urbanization society, and maintain a connection to this fading world in which the
country sprang.
the starting points of the design began with the desert rose, which are tiny formations
which crystallize below the desert's surface. made primarily from steel and concrete which
will be locally sourced / fabricated, the new building will be constructed from dozens
of interlocking disk-like forms varying in curvature and diameter, suggestive of the blade-like
petals of the desert rose. they will intersect at various angles, some standing, others acting as
support elements or lying horizontal, creating an uneven pile. they will be made from steel
truss structures, and will be assembled in a hub-and-spoke arrangement, all clad with glass fiber
reinforced concrete panels. columns concealed within the vertical disks, carry the loads of the
horizontal disks to the ground. his design is a manifestation of the qatari identity,
through a building appearing as if it is growing out of the ground.glazed facades fill the voids between the disks. perimeter mullions are recessed into the ceiling,
floor and walls, giving the glazing a frameless appearance when viewed from the outside.
deep disk-shaped sun-breaker elements filter incoming sunlight.
the layered disks of the building's exterior are mirrored on the interior.
there will be thermal buffer zones within the disk cavities, reducing the cooling loads of the building.
the large overhangs of the disks will create shady areas on the exterior, protecting the interior
from light and heat.
