    On December 31, @omniyatofficial announced on Instagram: "The Opus by Omniyat has just been selected as one of the top 10 hotels in the world for 2019. The 5-star ME Hotel, located in the mixed-use Opus Tower, is set to open in February 2020 and is the first hotel to be completely designed by the late star architect Dame Zaha Hadid."

    Opus 4
    Located within Burj Khalifa district of Dubai, the Opus is designed as two separate towers that coalesce into a singular whole, taking the form of a cube. The two towers are linked by a four-storey atrium at ground level and also connected by an asymmetric 38-m wide three-storey brdge that is 71 meters above the ground. The free-formed fluidity of the Opus' eight-storey void contrasts with the precise orthogonal geometry of it's surrounding cube Image Credit: zaha-hadid.com
