The Art Mill Museum is Qatar’s future museum of international modern and contemporary art developed by Qatar Museums in Doha. Due to open in 2030, the museum will transform an industrial flour mill site on the Corniche, forming a triangle with the existing Museum of Islamic Art and the National Museum of Qatar.

In 2016, an international architecture competition awarded this architectural project to the Chilean studio ELEMENTAL, led by the Pritzker Prize-winning architect Alejandro Aravena. A public garden will be designed by VOGT Landscape Architects, led by Günther Vogt.
