Museum Typology
Architectural approaches to museum design, from spatial organization to material expression and site integration.
Haptic museum
The Museum of Building Materials is different in that it is open to all people with any disabilities. The level of interaction with the escoponates is high. So even if you don't have the opportunity to see the material, you can touch it, hear it, smell it.
This project fits perfectly into the urban context that is proposed in the competition, offering an interesting volume that develops in height and at the same time creates a public space in his center, which significantly improves the network of free spaces. It also breaks to generate on the ground floor the cornernew connections. The organization of the exhibition spaces in height works brilliantly with natural light and geometry, offering the visitor a downward journey of great interest. We propose to reflect on the length of the visit in relation to the number of floors. How much time can the visitor spend on each of the floors? Could we combine materials? Could we have double heights?
it is a good idea, well developed. The proposal is balanced and does not offer any weak points. Congratulations

MUSEUM OF WOODS Experimentation of Space Retour a l'habitat

ZENITH
The form of the exhibition centre was based on three main ideas: digital art, the concept of Plato's cave and humanity's approach to places of worship. Project references to ancient ritual monuments, it creates cuboid menhirs, emphasizing the center of the building. They become an integral part of the landscape exposing the natural surroundings.
so amazing

Haptic Museum: Arca Luminis
By using various levels of exposure and connection to the exterior, the Haptic a variety of experiences for the galleries through a modular approach.
We find it very interesting both the choice of concrete with different textures as the main material and the idea of natural light slits to illuminate the exhibition spaces. We encourage you to make the organization of the tours of the building clearer. We also recommend that the central patio becomes the entrance to the building and that it be accessible to people with reduced mobility.
The "Concrete Museum" starts from a poor idea, but the development is correct and produces spaces with some interest

Hi! Are antennas or vertical structural elements (like columns) included in the height restrictions (15m)? Or they can exceed the limit of 15m?
Concrete construction beyond height restriction is not permitted - Non structural/temporary/disassemblable/parapet wall etc. are not included in height restrictions. Best Team Uni
Hi! Are underground levels of the building permitted?

Hello, I would like to ask about the functions inside the Athenaeum. Are there mandatory functions we need to use and do we have restrictions about them and their area ( for example Auditorium - 300sq.m. ; Cafeteria - 200sq.m. etc.) or is it completely our choice what functions to put and how to organise them? Thank you.
Yes you can tweak the functions as much as you like.
