DOHA: National Museum of Qatar (NMoQ) opened its doors to the public on Thursday.

Designed by Jean Nouvel, the Pritzker Prize-winning French architect, the multifaceted structure resembling a giant desert rose sits across from the bustling Doha Corniche, the main waterfront promenade in the Qatari capital.

The futuristic, sand-coloured structure, located near Doha’s airport highway, is likely to be among the first buildings visitors will spot when arriving in the city.

The 52,000 square-metre building had previously been slated to open more than two years ago, but the inauguration was delayed while the museum’s management team reviewed the accessibility of the building.

The museum is designed as a free-form space, in a way that does not include doors, and is meant to offer visitors a fluid experience as they move through time, space and themes.

這座佔地52,000平方米的建築原定於兩年多前開放,但就職典禮推遲了,而博物館的管理團隊則審查了該建築的可達性。

博物館被設計成一個自由形式的空間,其方式不包括門,旨在為遊客提供流暢的時間,空間和主題體驗。

Nouvel, who also designed Abu Dhabi’s Louvre, said the building is a symbol of Qatar’s culture and tradition.

“This is not just an open exhibition space,” Nouvel said at a press briefing in Doha ahead of the opening.

“This is a building with various dimensions – high and low ceilings – a combination that is expressive and unique in the world,” he said.

Nouvel said his team had to meet enormous challenges to construct a building with “great curved disks, intersections, and cantilevered angles”. – With input from agencies

Nouvel也設計了阿布扎比的盧浮宮,他說這座建築是卡塔爾文化和傳統的象徵。

“這不僅僅是一個開放的展覽空間,”努維爾在開幕式前在多哈舉行的新聞發布會上說。

“這是一座具有各種尺寸的建築 – 高低天花板 – 這種組合在世界上具有表現力和獨特性,”他說。

Nouvel說,他的團隊必鬚麵對巨大的挑戰才能建造一座“巨大的弧形盤,交叉點和懸臂角”的建築。 – 來自各機構的意見
