The Opus by Zaha Hadid has officially opened its doors for companies.

The project will house the first lifestyle hotel ME by Melia in the Middle East, world class Michelin star restaurants and private residences designed by Zaha herself and a bespoke wellness center with signature facilities. The hotel will open in Q4 2019, along with more than a dozen food and beverage outlets.

Omniyat has been working on the project alongside Zaha Hadid Architects since 2008. The Opus is designed as two separate towers that coalesce into a singular whole, taking the form of a cube. The cube is ‘carved’ to create a central void that is an important volume in its own right, providing views to the exterior from the heart of the building. It is this unique design and finish that makes The Opus instantly recognizable and will before long transcend the building into iconic status.
