KAPSARC - King Abdullah Petroleum Studies and Research Center in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The entire complex is designed by Zaha Hadid Architects. Structures are made to take advantage of the wind and air circulation, as well as to protect from the sun and extreme heat. Until recently, buildings were not accessible to ordinary visitors, but the opening of The Black Gold Museum, allowed people to see this masterpiece.
