Kohum Museum: Who am I, Really?

Each one of us, might have definitely come across the question: WHO AM I? (Ko-Aham=Kohum; in Sanskrit) However, always the answer turned out to be something unexpected or something that is not so relevant to the real search of tracing out our ancestral lineage. The aim here is to uncover those very ancestral links and re-discover our past-present-future!

Mala Shankar

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?

MUSEUM OF WOODS Experimentation of Space Retour a l'habitat

Museum of Woods makes the journey through nature possible, watching performances and re-interacting with nature -retour a l'habitat. Long contemplative journey -die wanderung- retraces collective memory of forest. These will be translated into architecture, unpretentiously, as spaces of storytellings.
