A Fusion of History and Design

A Fusion of History and Design

The Oman Across Ages Museum, located near Nizwa, stands as a testament to Oman's rich history and cultural heritage. Inspired by the geometric lines of the Hajar Mountains, this 40,000-square-meter architectural marvel narrates the nation's journey from prehistory to the present, with a particular focus on the Renaissance period under His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said al Said.

Panelox's role in shaping Oman's architectural legacy

Panelox's role in shaping Oman's architectural legacy

In our inaugural project in Oman, Panelox supplied over 2,000 composite copper coloured panels in our double-anodized finish and window frames in AluCopper01. These composite panels seamlessly integrate with the museum's design, reflecting the surrounding landscape and embodying the stories of human achievement that the museum aims to convey.
