Aim
The Msheireb Enrichment Centre will provide the community an avenue to learn and enhance their experiences with thematic workshops and conferences, cultural events and gallery space with exhibits that focus on the Qatari heritage, along with a series of ongoing activities that will involve and engage the community actively.
Msheireb Properties chose to build a floating structure so that it could be moored off the Doha Corniche, acting as a bridge between the new structures in West Bay and Doha’s old city centre, while symbolising the land and the sea - two central themes in Doha’s history that have helped the city become an important port and trading centre.
Msheireb Properties has set upon changing the city landscape with the new Qatari architectural language, beginning with its signature project, Msheireb. At the same time, it is firm in its commitment to support the people of Qatar to flourish and enrich their experiences, and encourage the new culture of knowledge sharing and exchange.
A long-term endowment to people, the Msheireb Enrichment Centre is representative of Msheireb Properties' pillars and personifies Msheireb Properties' CSR Flourish initiatives. It is innovative in its design, yet clearly inspired by our Qatari heritage, and is built to enrich the lives of the people of Qatar. It will become a meeting point for all Qatari families who will be proud to see their city return to its roots.
Visitors will also gain an insight into Msheireb Properties' vision for its signature project Musheireb, located in Inner Doha, close to the historic origins of Qatar’s capital city. Msheireb Properties is regenerating a 35 hectare site that will reflect Qatar’s rich heritage, traditions and culture in its design and architecture, while embracing new technologies.
The Msheireb Enrichment Centre recreates a sense of the home by incorporating many designs and features that can are found in traditional Qatari dwellings, as also in the Msheireb project.
