Louvre Museum - Abu Dhabi - Architect Jean Nouvel

The architect Jean Nouvel created water channels that pass through the museum inspired by the Aflaj, an irrigation system for Arabs, while the dome was inspired by traditional Arab architecture and palm trees in the oases. It also allows natural light to penetrate into the building as seen by the sun passing through the clouds The interlocking palm trees that were used in the roof of traditional houses give spectacular shades.
