Designed by Foster + Partners, The House of Wisdom is a newly opened iconic library and a cultural centre in the city of Sharjah, UAE. Celebrations in Sharjah – this year’s UNESCO World Book Capital – kicked-off with the unveiling of The Scroll, a new piece of public art by British sculptor Gerry Judah. The opening event also revealed designs for the new House of Wisdom – an iconic library and cultural centre that seeks to be the catalyst for a new cultural quarter in the city. Both projects are being developed by Sharjah Investment and Development Authority (Shurooq). https://houseofwisdom.ae/
