Date 2016
Location Qatar

The museum is organized as a continuous exhibition circuit on land transport, navigation and aviation. These three exhibition areas are separated by slices of glass which give them a visual identity. The building floating on the water recalls a sailboat and the double skin facade expresses the same idea of lightness and beauty of the sails. The translucent glass skin allows controlled lighting throughout the day. The facade is transparent on 3 meters height to allow visual contact with the outside. In the middle, an inner garden is a place of refreshment with a coffee terrace under the trees.
