Our Iconic Architecture
Our Iconic Architecture
Designed by renowned architect Moshe Safdie, our museum is inspired by the shape of a lotus in full bloom. Each ‘frond’ on the building contains a different gallery, with skylights illuminating the curved interior walls to create a dramatic silhouette on the skyline.
The building also marries function with form by incorporating environmental features into its design. Rainwater is collected on the museum’s roof, channelled through the atrium, and recycled for use.

Gallery Spaces
Level 3 Galleries
The gallery’s unique geometry features high ceilings that can accommodate any type of installation, as well as a rotunda that floods the space with natural light without damaging the artwork.
Basement 2 Galleries
Basement 2 galleries can be freely partitioned to create distinctive spaces that enhance the presentation of artworks.
