新迪拜ME酒店坐落于迪拜哈利法塔區域，毗鄰迪拜市中心和迪拜運河商務灣。設計是2007年由扎哈·哈迪德提出的，這是她既設計了外建筑，又設計了室內空間的唯一一家酒店，作品探索了實體與虛體、透明與不透明、內部與外部之間的平衡。

　　Home to the new ME Dubai hotel, the Opus is located in the Burj Khalifa district adjacent to Downtown Dubai and Business Bay on the Dubai Water Canal. Exploring the balance between solid and void, opaque and transparent, interior and exterior, the design was presented by Zaha Hadid in 2007 and is the only hotel in which she created both its architecture and interiors.

　　作品占地面積84,300平方米，其立方體形式被設計為兩個獨立的塔樓，集聚變成一個單獨的整體。其中，這個立方體的中心被“侵蝕”，生成了一個虛空間，這恰恰是設計里的一個重要部分。虛空間的兩半建筑由一個位于地面的四層中庭連接，并由一座高出地面71米、寬38米、三層的不對稱跑馬廊連接。

　　Spanning 84,300 square metres (907,400 square feet), the Opus was designed as two separate towers that coalesce into a singular whole—taking the form of a cube. The cube has been ‘eroded’ in its centre, creating a free-form void that is an important volume of the design in its own right. The two halves of the building on either side of the void are linked by a four-storey atrium at ground level and also connected by an asymmetric 38 metre wide, three-storey bridge 71 metres above the ground.

　　扎哈·哈迪德建筑師事務所（Zaha Hadid Architects）項目總監克里斯托斯·帕薩斯（Christos Pasas）解釋說：“作品的元素玻璃立方體精確正交幾何與中心的八層流動的虛空間形成戲劇化的對比”。

　　“The precise orthogonal geometries of the Opus’ elemental glass cube contrast dramatically with the fluidity of the eight-storey void at its centre,” explained Christos Passas, project director at Zaha Hadid Architects.

　　立方體的雙層隔熱玻璃立面覆以UV涂層，以及鏡面反射玻璃形式，降低太陽光吸收量。應用于整個建筑，這種虛線的熔點強調正交結構的清晰。然而，與此同時，在不斷變化的反射和透明度之間，通過不斷變化的光線，溶解其體積。

　　The cube’s double-glazed insulating façades incorporate a UV coating and a mirrored frit pattern to reduce solar gain. Applied around the entire building, this dotted frit patterning emphasizes the clarity of the building’s orthogonal form, while at the same time, dissolving its volume through the continuous play of light varying between ever-changing reflections and transparency.

　　這個鏤空的6000平方米的立面是由4300個獨立的玻璃單元構成，包括平面玻璃、單曲面玻璃和雙曲面玻璃。高效玻璃單元由8mm Low-E玻璃（內部涂層）、16mm空腔和2層6mm透明玻璃（1.52mm PVB樹脂層壓板）組成。這個曲面玻璃的立面是使用數字三維模型設計的，該模型還確定了需要鋼化玻璃的特定區域。

　　The void’s 6,000 square metre façade is created from 4,300 individual units of flat, single-curved or double-curved glass. The high-efficiency glazing units are comprised of 8mm Low-E glass (coated on the inside), a 16mm cavity between the panes and 2 layers of 6mm clear glass with a 1.52mm PVB resin laminate. This curved façade was designed using digital 3D modelling that also identified specific zones which required tempered glass.

　　白天，立方體的正面反射著天空、太陽和周圍的城市；而在晚上，每個玻璃面板內都有一個單獨可控制的LED動態燈裝置，將空間照亮。

　　During the day, the cube’s façade reflects the sky, the sun and the surrounding city; whilst at night, the void is illuminated by a dynamic light installation of individually controllable LEDs within each glass panel.

      扎哈·哈迪德設計的家具安裝在整個酒店，包括大廳的“Petalinas”沙發和“Ottomans”吊艙，這些吊艙是由確保使用壽命長的材料制成的，其組件可以回收利用。每間臥室都設有“Opus”床，套房內還設有“Work&Play”組合沙發和書桌。酒店的臥室還包含了Hadid于2015年為Noken Porcelanosa設計的“Vitae”浴室系列，在整個酒店內部延續了她流暢的建筑語言。

　　Furniture by Zaha Hadid Design is installed throughout the hotel, including the ‘Petalinas’ sofas and 'Ottomans' pods in the lobby that are fabricated from materials ensuring a long lifecycle and its components can be recycled. The ‘Opus’ beds in each bedroom while the ‘Work & Play’ combination sofa with desk are installed in the suites. The hotel’s bedrooms also incorporate the ‘Vitae’ bathroom collection, designed by Hadid in 2015 for Noken Porcelanosa, continuing her fluid architectural language throughout the hotel’s interiors.

       迪拜ME酒店擁有74間客房和19間套房。Opus大廈還設有辦公樓層、服務式公寓和多家餐廳、咖啡館和酒吧，其中包括ROKA，當代日本爐端燒（robatayaki）餐廳以及著名的MAINE Land Brasserie餐廳。

　　The ME Dubai hotel incorporates 74 rooms and 19 suites, while the Opus building also houses offices floors, serviced residences and restaurants, cafes and bars including ROKA, the contemporary Japanese robatayaki restaurant and the MAINE Land Brasserie.

　　傳感器貫穿整個作品，根據入住情況自動調整通風以及照明，從而節約能源，遵循了梅利亞酒店可持續實踐國際倡議。酒店客人將會收到不銹鋼水瓶，并在酒店內安裝飲水機搭配使用。由于客房里沒有塑料瓶，所有區域都將完全無塑料化，酒店還通過不提供自助餐而減少食物浪費，并配備堆肥機回收廢棄的有機物。

　　Sensors throughout the Opus automatically adjust the ventilation and lighting according to occupancy to conserve energy while ME Dubai follows Meliá Hotels International initiatives for sustainable practices. Hotel guests will receive stainless-steel water bottles to use during their stay with drinking water dispensers installed throughout the hotel. With no plastic bottles in guest rooms and a program to become entirely plastic free in all areas, the hotel is also reducing food waste by not serving buffets and has composters to recycle discarded organics.
