Video showcases sinuous forms of desert headquarters by Zaha Hadid Architects

The twisting sculptural form of the recently completed Beeah Headquarters in Sharjah by British architecture studio Zaha Hadid Architects is revealed in this drone video.

Located in the Al Sajaa desert, the 9,000-square-metre building was designed by the studio’s late founder Zaha Hadid in 2013 to echo the surrounding desert sand dunes.

Now realised by her studio Zaha Hadid Architects, it forms the office for environmental management company Beeah Group.

In the drone video, the Beeah Headquarters’ exterior is revealed in detail.

This includes its glass fibre-reinforced concrete cladding, which has been applied across the exterior to help regulate internal temperatures.

The building’s sinuous forms continue inside and in a 15-metre-high foyer, which is designed to facilitate natural ventilation and filter natural light through the interior.
