The History of Science Centre links ancient Islamic sciences of the "golden age" with the current university studies at the German University of Technology (GUtech) in Halban, Oman. The building creates a link between art and science with nature and geometry whilst symbolizing infinity and divinity.

Numerous innovative techniques were used to deliver the sophisticated first of its kind structure in the Sultanate of Oman. The 2-floor ensemble contains a highly defined cut pattern as the main entrance to the 1,200sqm of general exhibition space on the ground floor.
