Zayed National Museum
Project Overview

The Zayed National Museum, designed by Foster + Partners, serves as a tribute to the founding father of the UAE while showcasing the nation's rich cultural heritage. The museum's distinctive wing-like structures create a dramatic silhouette against the Abu Dhabi skyline. Our role in this prestigious project involves advanced parametric modeling to realize the complex curved geometries that define the building's iconic form. The integration of traditional Emirati architectural elements with contemporary design requires precise digital coordination and innovative construction methodologies. Key project elements: - Parametric modeling of complex wing structures - Integration of traditional and contemporary design elements - Advanced environmental analysis for desert climate - Coordination with landscape and site infrastructure - Heritage preservation technology integration
