iCONIC 2022 is the first building in the world to resemble a year – and the unique structure started with a simple concept.
“I wanted to build something for this generation as a reminder of what we are able to achieve. High Highness the Father Amir and His Highness the Amir both taught us that nothing is impossible for the people of Qatar”, said Sheikh Al Thani. There was considered several designs but settled on showing the number that will forever become and stay as a part of Qatar’s history.
It is just a stone’s throw away from Khalifa International Stadium, which will host matches up to the third-place play-off during the World Cup. The building is also close to Aspire Zone, Aspire Academy and Aspetar – all facilities that support Qatar’s commitment to sporting development.
As well as a famous tourist hot spot along with an indeed unique architectural creation, iCONIC 2022 is a multi-purpose building that consists of offices, gymnasiums (world-famous and recognized franchises like 9Round, The Megaformer Studio etc) the biggest Monoprix supermarket and a wide array of dining options including the most famous ones: Starbucks, FlatWhite, December Café and others.
