Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President and Ruler of Dubai, received Ramadan greetings at the emirate's Museum of the Future on Tuesday.

Sheikh Mohammed was joined at the gathering by Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed, Crown Prince of Dubai, and Sheikh Maktoum bin Mohammed, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Finance and Deputy Ruler of Dubai.

Dignitaries and foreign investors were present at the event.

A video shared by Dubai Media Office showed Sheikh Mohammed exchanging best wishes for the holy month, with the Museum of the Future providing a stunning backdrop to the proceedings.

The architectural marvel opened to the public on February 22.

The striking structure stands 78 metres tall and was named as one of the 14 most beautiful museums on the planet in a list compiled by National Geographic magazine in July.

It provides an immersive experience that embraces cutting-edge technology and invites guests to imagine what the future could be like in topics such as outer space, nature and wellness.

The design

The protective shell is covered in solar panels to make use of light and produce energy. This will drastically reduce energy loss.

More than 80 per cent of the energy consumed by the French pavilion will be produced by the sun.

The architecture will control light sources to provide a highly insulated and airtight building.

The forecourt is protected from the sun and the plants will refresh the inner spaces.

A micro water treatment plant will recycle used water to supply the irrigation for the plants and to flush the toilets. This will reduce the pavilion’s need for fresh water by 30 per cent.

Energy-saving equipment will be used for all lighting and projections.

Beyond its use for the expo, the pavilion will be easy to dismantle and reuse the material.

Some elements of the metal frame can be prefabricated in a factory.

 From architects to sound technicians and construction companies, a group of experts from 10 companies have created the pavilion.

Work will begin in May; the first stone will be laid in Dubai in the second quarter of 2019. 

Construction of the pavilion will take 17 months from May 2019 to September 2020.
