Qatar’s Convention Centre ... Yamasaki’s design.
Yamasaki, a leading architect and engineer, showcased the designs of the 79,000 sq m convention centre in Qatar’s Education City at the recent Cityscape, Abu Dhabi.
The architectural showpiece, which is slated for completion next year, will feature 10 conference and performance venues, including a 4,000-seat conference hall and a 2,500-seat theatre. The centre’s design is centered on a steel replica of the Sidra tree, an icon in Qatari history and culture, which is also the symbol for the Qatar Foundation.
The centre will also be a venue for local and international music and arts festivals.
