The extraordinary structure features five sculpted \u201cwings\u201d, which aren\u2019t simply present just to look good. Their purpose is to maintain a cool interior naturally. The plans for the Zayed National Museum were unveiled in 2010 and were intended to be a monument to the UAE\u2019s first president Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan. The unique winged form is inspired by the late president\u2019s love for falconry and traditional Islamic motifs.<\/p>\n<p>Designer: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fosterandpartners.com\/\">Foster + Partners<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-494542\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/06\/zayed-national-museum\/zayed_national_museum_yanko_design_02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/06\/12\/this-impressive-winged-museum-in-abu-dhabi-cools-itself-naturally\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"This Impressive Winged Museum In Abu Dhabi Cools Itself Naturally\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/06\/zayed-national-museum\/zayed_national_museum_yanko_design_02.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-494542\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/06\/zayed-national-museum\/zayed_national_museum_yanko_design_02.jpg\" alt width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/06\/12\/this-impressive-winged-museum-in-abu-dhabi-cools-itself-naturally\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"This Impressive Winged Museum In Abu Dhabi Cools Itself Naturally\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/06\/zayed-national-museum\/zayed_national_museum_yanko_design_02.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-3\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0648786275385337\" data-ad-slot=\"6683677248\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width><\/p>\n<div overflow><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\" type=\"c78b2ee85af8259d7c8b97d8-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"c78b2ee85af8259d7c8b97d8-text\/javascript\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The main building of the museum is designed to be a 98-foot-tall \u201cmound\u201d which imitates the topography of the UAE. Decorative steel wings seem to grow out of the building, ranging from heights of 83 m to 123 m. The intricate wings are pretty complex, and they remind you of the RIBA Stirling Prize winner New Library, Magdalene College. The wings function like chimneys, pulling hot air up and out of the building.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe heat at the top of the towers works to draw the air up vertically through the galleries due to the thermal\u00a0stack effect,\u201d said Foster + Partners. \u201cAir vents open at the top of the wing-shaped towers taking advantage of the negative pressure on the lee of the wing profile to draw the hot air out. Fresh air is also captured at low level and drawn through buried ground-cooling pipes and then released into the museum\u2019s lobby.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-494543\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/06\/zayed-national-museum\/zayed_national_museum_yanko_design_03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/06\/12\/this-impressive-winged-museum-in-abu-dhabi-cools-itself-naturally\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"This Impressive Winged Museum In Abu Dhabi Cools Itself Naturally\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/06\/zayed-national-museum\/zayed_national_museum_yanko_design_03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-494543\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/06\/zayed-national-museum\/zayed_national_museum_yanko_design_03.jpg\" alt width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/06\/12\/this-impressive-winged-museum-in-abu-dhabi-cools-itself-naturally\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"This Impressive Winged Museum In Abu Dhabi Cools Itself Naturally\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/06\/zayed-national-museum\/zayed_national_museum_yanko_design_03.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>The interior includes a massive atrium that instantly grabs attention. The entire interior layout is focused around this atrium, and it is lit up with indirect natural light to prevent heating of the space. The upper story contains four pod-shaped galleries which have been placed at the base of each wing. When ready, the museum\u2019s exhibits will showcase ancient marine creations from millions of years ago, early Aramaic coins, warfare, and contemporary culture. It will also include a landscaped narrative garden which will display the important moments of Sheikh Zayed\u2019s life.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-494544\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/06\/zayed-national-museum\/zayed_national_musuem_yanko_design_04.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/06\/12\/this-impressive-winged-museum-in-abu-dhabi-cools-itself-naturally\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"This Impressive Winged Museum In Abu Dhabi Cools Itself Naturally\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/06\/zayed-national-museum\/zayed_national_musuem_yanko_design_04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-494544\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/06\/zayed-national-museum\/zayed_national_musuem_yanko_design_04.jpg\" alt width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/06\/12\/this-impressive-winged-museum-in-abu-dhabi-cools-itself-naturally\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"This Impressive Winged Museum In Abu Dhabi Cools Itself Naturally\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/06\/zayed-national-museum\/zayed_national_musuem_yanko_design_04.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-4\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0648786275385337\" data-ad-slot=\"1017606968\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width><\/p>\n<div overflow><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\" type=\"c78b2ee85af8259d7c8b97d8-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"c78b2ee85af8259d7c8b97d8-text\/javascript\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"swp-hidden-panel-wrap\" style=\"display: none; visibility: collapse; opacity: 0\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"swp-content-locator\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-5\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0648786275385337\" data-ad-slot=\"9466393889\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width><\/p>\n<div overflow><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"vcard author\"><br \/>\n<span>By<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Srishti Mitra<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
