Oman Across Ages Museum Hosts Architecture Revival Initiative to Enrich National Heritage

In an exciting collaboration, the Oman Across Ages Museum, located in the Wilayat of Manah, is set to unveil the Architecture Revival Initiative from February 15th until February 22nd. This significant event, organized by the Office of His Highness Sayyid Bilarab bin Haitham Al Said, marks a continuation of efforts initiated through the first and second cycles of the Bilarab bin Haitham Award for Architectural Design. It also stems from the competitive journey to design the Sultanate of Oman Pavilion at Expo Japan 2025.

Unveiling Omani National Identity Through Architecture

The initiative serves as a beacon for enriching the architectural field within Oman, aiming to target and engage diverse community segments - from professionals and experts to students passionate about architectural design. It places a strong emphasis on raising awareness about architecture’s pivotal role in shaping national identity.

By exploring Omani architecture's historical context, participants can gain insight into its cultural, social, and economic impacts over the ages. The initiative celebrates the innovative spirit of Omanis by highlighting their traditional methods alongside modern construction techniques, fostering an environment that encourages both creativity and entrepreneurship within architectural practices.

Fostering Discussion and Innovation in Omani Architecture

This three-day event will focus on pivotal discussions surrounding the pillars of continuous education, innovation, and market readiness. These conversations are designed to not only serve but also revitalize the architectural industry in Oman. Participants attending the initiative will benefit from a variety of activities aimed at enhancing their skills and understanding of the field.

The Architecture Revival Initiative is poised to become a landmark event for all stakeholders interested in the future of architecture within the Sultanate of Oman, ensuring it remains a vibrant and integral part of Omani culture and heritage.
