SCOPE

STRATEGY TO TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION

Clarity at every touchpoint.

The Black Gold Museum opened in 2026 as part of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 initiative. The museum deals with the intersection of oil and contemporary art, taking a positive spin on petroleum by telling the story of life before and after the discovery of oil.

1. The Challenge

Seamlessly integrate the new museum space with the existing KAPSARC development to create a cohesive flow for both new and returning visitors.

2. The Approach

Geometric shapes and prominent materials were drawn as inspiration from the existing Zaha Hadid Architecture - focusing on intentional, prominent and strategic signage placement, working in harmony with the museum's spatial design.

Designed as one complete system.
