Zaha Hadid unveiled the design of the new Performing Arts Centre at a press conference in Abu Dhabi, UAE today.
Hadid’s Performing Arts Centre concept, a 62 metre high building is proposing to house five theatres a music hall, concert hall, opera house, drama theatre and a flexible theatre with a combined seating capacity for 6,300. The Centre may also house an Academy of Performing Arts.
The Abu Dhabi Performing Arts Centre will be one of five major cultural institutions on the new 270-hectacre cultural district of Saadiyat Island in Abu Dhabi - developed by the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation on behalf of the Tourism Development and Investment Company of Abu Dhabi (TDIC).
Zaha Hadid describes the design of the Performing Arts Centre as a sculptural form that emerges from a linear intersection of pedestrian paths within the cultural district, gradually developing into a growing organism that sprouts a network of successive branches.

clinton bowen says
Reminds me of some Calatrava’s work, only a bit more smooth.
whatever says
sorry, for your info calatrava design and z.hadid design are a total different.
ok says
I agree with Clinton Bowen this work IS getting to be like Calatrava. I do like her stuff but for my tastes this is getting a little bland. Reminds me of the Glass Cube by 3deluxe too - “organic” white rubbery curves.. yawn.

Isabelle says

Zaha’s opus may celebrate coronation with this magnificent hybrid of two paradoxical worlds - evolutionary cell mitosis accompanied with simple and diferential mathematics. These two became the seal of her design, a symbiosis visible on a glance.
Within its curvature, Performing Arts Centre partially contravenes its mein veiling straight line crafted steel access to upper floors and separate pavilions.
Volatile shape isn’t stationary as it may seem for at the change in weather conditions the of illumination of inner lights adorned with structure’s innate cellular lines obscures its visage, simulating vague movement akin to mirage.
Aforementioned are a couple of appeal finesses implemented into the design to shell visual imagery with satiety of abundant attributes.

people who doesn’t know about architecture or have at least a bit of knowledge or general culture, i will appreciate if you stay away from this kind of sites, because you are waisting our (Architects/intellectuals) time when we are looking form some interesting comments that we can learn from, thanks
gloryrose dy says
I love your works Hadid. Youre my inspiration in my thesis..!!
joy says
you don’t understand nothing about architecture, the real architects are that who make buildings in a style “outside the story”, and care details in thair projects. Hadid isn’t this. today there aren’t this type of architect.
gloryrose dy says
I’m sorry but I think I understand architecture perfectly well since I am an architecture student. And if you cant appreciate Hadid then you haven’t grasp what architecture really is..This is the architecture of the future.. It is dynamic but not moving, it has a story and it portrays a performance.
