Scope and content
Juma Al Majid Centre for Culture and Heritage, Dubai, 1993-1995.
This design was a winning competition entry for a centre for culture and heritage in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. In the final design the complex comprised of a number of linked buildings and spaces. The choice of tree-like structure on the roof aimed to create the impression of a library garden and oasis, whilst the central courtyard was designed as an external landscaped room. The eventual building project was not executed.
