Museum Architecture: Home

Traditionally, a museum is an institution dedicated to acquiring, preserving, studying, and exhibiting objects of enduring interest or value. Museums share similarities with gallery buildings and temporary structures like pavilions at expositions. Modern museum architectures continue to reflect architects' concepts through various architectural styles and features. However, museums have evolved into vibrant cultural and social hubs within cities. When designing a museum building, there is a greater emphasis on facilitating interactions among people, engaging audiences, and encouraging exploration. Moreover, there is a growing trend of repurposing old or historical buildings for museum or exhibition purposes.
