About the Museum of the Future in Dubai
The Museum of the Future, as envisioned by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, is a centre for investigating the future of science, technology, and humanity. The concept is a striking representation of creativity and forward thinking; unlike other conventional museums, it does not showcase the past but envisions the future.
The building itself is phenomenal: a torus-shaped structure with an open centre symbolizes the future. The rulers’ quotations are engraved in Arabic calligraphy on its stainless-steel façade, combining tradition and Modern design. The structure is a feat in both design as well as engineering, built without columns and certified LEED Platinum for sustainability.
This marvellous structure is close to the Emirates Towers on Sheikh Zayed Road, and very conveniently reachable by Metro and pedestrian bridges. The visitors can take a tour through the seven immersive floors, exploring themes from space, wellness to digital nature, and future technologies.
The breathtaking architecture, exhibits, and prime location of The Museum of Future make it not just a tourist attraction but also an invitation to envision, inquire, and co-create the Future World.
