the Museum of World Cultures, which
- Role: setting
- In the video: At 110 m the museum towers over everything else in the park. Its planned height grew from 60 m to 80, 100 and finally 110 m, with Bofill recalculating the geometry to keep its golden-ratio proportions; the video calls the building itself “an artifact”. It sits in a cultural hub with a national theatre, libraries and exhibition halls.
- Why it matters: It backs the video’s point that the park is more than green space: it is also meant to be a cultural centre and a wayfinding landmark for Riyadh.
