Rehabilitation of the Museum is the opportunity to come within the existing structures, layers of cultural
and historical heritage, opening it to the demystification of its inclusion in the public life of the city, through
the dynamic communication space, programs and users.The solution provides a space that is aesthetically
"purified" and "open", a simplified functional and rational,structurally "facilitated" by removing all
unnecessary, and multifaceted program through the membrane to the heavy layering of all open spaces
and a unified core. This despite "impenetrable" facade sends the message that there is nothing to hide and
mystified, that relations between old / new, hard / soft, internal / external fluid and above all we consider
the dynamic of modernarchitectural concepts.The primary parameter which led to the setting solution is
to streamline the communication scheme up and improve, and at the same time offer new spaces and an
environment that opens new possibilities for typological organization settings, as well as new supporting
facilities that already Museum has a need to organize, but had not have adequate space capacity.
Primarily refers to content that will include meeting more people in the area that should function as a
natural extension of the public space of the square.The solution was created through extensive research
into the needs of museums and manipulation of existing building structure, using primarilymethods:
withdrawal, then merge the existing space and the "wrapping" layers and communication gaps that make
existing static dynamic structure of the house.Wrapping procedure was carried out two-way: from the
inside out-from the central "cavity" to full membrane, and out-facilitating inward current structure gradually
towards the central core. Thus the two central staircase protected atrium bathed in light, associated with
new galleries and panoramic glass elevators form a central free space, and then attaches them to the
simplified main horizontal communication in a ring, which connects the existing exhibition spaces in the
area "between" hard skins and central cavity.Wrapping procedure was carried out two-way: from the inside
out, from the central "cavity" to full membrane.The central staircases, new galleries and panoramic glass
elevators form a central free space, attached to main horizontal communication in a ring.Museum of
integration rather than fragmentation, provides information in perception of transformable space that is
able to respond to the dynamic of new processes.
