City Museum

The undeveloped real estate for this fictional project is located at the intersection of two important streets in the heart of Wiesbaden, the capital of Germany`s federal state Hessen. The community tried to find out what a museum for the city, which should represent their history, could look like. Therefore a small group of students of architecture began to plan. An important aspect was to integrate the building into the developed area which sorrounds it. The only condition we had was to comply with the given space programme.

Design Idea

My idea was to create an architectural design which supports the effect of the objects on display inside the museum. The architecture should not distract from the exhibition. So the building is structured into three parts:
- the closed cubes which contain the exhibitions
- the bright central rotunda which works as a centre for communication, information and orientation
- the museum café with its dominant pillars which are to remind of the Roman times in Wiesbaden, and which you can see in many areas of the city.
