Tony Kettle designed the building to reinforce a sense of place for green Dubai as a leading example of sustainable development both in the region and internationally. A beautiful organic form from the outside, The Solar Innovation Centre inspires curiosity and free thought through a stimulating free flowing multi level design. The building has a simple and economical structure based on the principles of ‘divine geometry’ seen in Islamic art.
