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.
