Sharjah's brutalist Flying Saucer turned into arts centre

UAE-based SpaceContinuum Design Studio has collaborated with the Sharjah Art Foundation to turn a 1970s brutalist restaurant into an arts centre in Sharjah.
Originally opened in 1978 as a French restaurant and patisserie, the Flying Saucer has been renovated to become an exhibition venue for the Sharjah Art Foundation (SAF), which organises the emirate's art biennial and is a partner of the Sharjah Architecture Triennial.
