journey of the pioneers: an immersive exhibition opens at dubai’s museum of the longer term

‘Journey of the Pioneers’ by ATELIER BRÜCKNER opens in Dubai’s museum of the future

the museum of the future is one of dubai’s new attractions, taking its place on the world map. in an iconic building completed by killa design, visitors get to embark on an expedition to a future. within the museum, ATELIER BRÜCKNER has designed the ‘journey of the pioneers’, a new exhibition stretching over three floors and 3,000 square meters. every level offers a fully immersive experience, with powerful spatial narratives focusing on a vision of tomorrow: life in space, bioengineering, the regeneration of damaged ecosystems, and individual wellbeing.

ATELIER BRÜCKNER (see more here) organized the ‘journey of the future’ experience as a choreographed sequence of installations, with sounds and scents that take visitors away from everyday banalities — immersing them instead in a tangible, futuristic world where everyone has a role to play. further elevating that sensory experience are guiding lights and unique material choices featured on every exhibition level.

level 5 presents the ‘OSS-hope’, a space station context with walls clad in 3D-printed meshes that appear to be made from asteroid-mined material. meanwhile, the walls of the HEAL institute on level 3 comprise sustainable rattan palm. finally, clay engulfs the ALWAHA surfaces on level 4. more than twenty planning experts, visionary technologists, artists, and consultants were involved in the overall development of the ‘journey of the pioneers’ show.
