Dubai has a very deep relationship with architecture, and so it is no surprise that the "Museum of the Future" is located in the city. Catching everyone's attention with its printed calligraphy, the office responsible for the architectural project, Killa Design and designed by Buro Happold, innovated in several ways.

The calligraphy is in Arabic and together they form true poems . Technology was very welcome in the creation of the museum.

To create the desired shape and innovative cladding, Killa Design and Buro Happold developed new parametric modeling tools . This included a “growth algorithm” that was used to “digitally augment” the building’s internal steel structure.
