This is a picture from 2008 when Jean Nouvel started designing the museum. Even after planning the design, it took many years for the plans to get carried out and for the museum to be built.  At the start of the project, Nouvel said that he didn't know that the museum would be the Louvre, all he knew was that it would be a museum of civilizations and he wanted something powerful and nobel to represent the museum, while making sure to include Arab architecture.

Jean Nouvel is the famous French architect that designed the Louvre in Abu Dhabi. In his design for the museum he tried to reflect nobility. Nouvel says that it was a challenge to create something for people from all over the world, but ultimately one of his best works and it is important for all generations. This shows that the the museum was not just designed to look good, it had a lot of thought put into it to help represent the museum. His gorgeous creation is a tourist attraction and learning museum.

The Louvre in Paris is the original Louvre and the whole project of the Louvre Abu Dhabi revolved around this museum. The Louvre in Paris is the source of many borrowed pieces in the Louvre Abu Dhabi and because of an agreement with the French government the museum in Abu Dhabi is allowed to use the name “Louvre” (for 30 years).

This is the outside of the Louvre Abu Dhabi. It is a beautiful building  on the Saadiyat Island that is surrounded by water; the landscape and structure is impeccable. The museum was created as an attraction, but even more so to spread the message of accepting all and about having harmony within humanity.
