Its distinctive shape has earned Dubai's ruler and UAE vice president Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum the nickname "the most beautiful building in the world". This museum consists of an elongated ring shape with a void in the middle which is allocated as a garden with an artificial lake that is not too wide, equipped with a mound of grass.

Three sentences inscribed on the building read "We may not live for hundreds of years, but creativity can leave a legacy long after we are gone", "The future belongs to those who can imagine it, design it and execute it. It's not something you wait for, but create", and "Innovation is not an intellectual luxury. It is the secret behind the evolution and rejuvenation of nations and societies".
