The interlocking disc design by Jean Nouvel is inspired by the desert rose. The space will be a thriving hub for the public, students, and museum professionals. It will redefine the role of a cultural institution, fostering a spirit of participation and providing the conditions for discovery to thrive. Beyond galleries, it provides:

- 220-seat auditorium

- two retail outlets, two restaurants, and a café

- a dedicated food forum, preserving culinary traditions

- research center and laboratories

- a park filled with indigenous plants

The museum is built around Sheikh Abdullah bin Jassim Al-Thani’s original palace – his family home and seat of the government for 25 years.
