Special Features of Project : This fluid form gives an opportunity to connect the various cultural spaces whilst, at the same time, providing each element of the Centre with its own identity and privacy. As it folds inside, the skin erodes away to become an element of the interior landscape of the Centre. This is the largest construction of Hadid design built to date.
