Exploring Qatar's Heritage

People who come to this national museum can have an eye on galleries that adjoin chronologically and cover three related topics. The artifacts are general on Persian Gulf prehistory, Bedouin lifestyles, tribal conflicts, Qatar state formation process, and oil discovery.

Such themes can be demonstrated using audiovisual means to display about 8000 pieces of collected material: architectural and art decorations, archaeological items, home items, ornamented pieces, clothes and fabrics, jewelry, books, and historical items.

Echoes of Qatar's Past

Apart from representing the history and culture of Qatar this museum also wakes up the desert telling the silent when it comes to the new and the old. It evokes something, uncovering paradoxes and roots in the region’s past to which everyone is connected in some way.

The National Museum of Qatar is a contemporary and engaging place that gathers and inspires people and communities where through the living exhibit of Qatar’s continuous evolution, the visitor feels the immediate connection with the history and the development of the state.

Desert Rose Inspiration

The complex of the museum was constructed on the territory of the previous museum. The architecture designer is Jean Nouvel who is the Pritzker Prize winner, his idea was inspired by the desert rose, which is a mineral structure found under the sand in the Bay Area.

This is an important building in Qatari history that has been retained as the focal structure in the new NMoQ. According to Sheikha Al Mayassa, the proportional connection of the old and the new gives an image of the transition from the past to the present time.

Geometric Splendor Revealed

The National Museum is of 430000 sq. feet. (40000 square meters) has a complex geometrical structure something like compounded circular discs interlinking each other in such a way that these discs form cavities so that one can’t touch the sun of the great desert!

The building of the museum stands on the territory of 1.5 million sq. feet. The construction appears to float on the sea at the southern end of Doha’s corniche, although it is linked to the mainland by a road bridge, two suspension bridges for pedestrians, and a tunnel.

Cultural Tides of Qatar

Qatar as a seaside city was founded by the people who built houses by the coast. Part of this region developed into a busy fishing, pearl diving, and trading port for the nomadic communities hence cultivating the maritime culture that led to the development of this area.

Besides the human people of Qatar, the native animals and plants enrich the nation’s culture. As a whole, they are the unchanging values and together they may be referred to as the historical constants of the nation, as the historical symbols of its distinct identity.

Sustainable Design Features

The integrative construction of this building is remarkable in terms of energy efficiency which is under steel interlocking discs against UV rays. These discs provide shades across this structure when the sun is approaching from the eastern or the western direction.

Part of the windows of the building are tilted backward and there are limited spaces where windows are opened therefore the interior space does not have much interaction with the sun and the interior air can be easily conditioned to the needed effect cheaply.
