Info
LOCATED AT THE CITY CENTER OF GAZIANTEP, THE ARCHITECTURAL MASS OF THE MUSEUM IS SHAPED BY THE IDEA OF PROTECTING EXISTENT TREES AND BY RESPECTING THEM CREATING AXES TO REACH THE COURTYARD. THE COURTYARD IS DESIGNED AS AN OPEN RECREATIONAL AREA FOR PUBLIC AND VISITORS USE AS WELL AS A COMMON OPEN SPACE FOR RESTAURANTS AND SHOPS LOCATED ALONG WITH THE COURTYARD.
FOLLOWING THE CONTINUITY AND THE FLOW THAT IS BROUGHT BY THE FORM OF DESIGN, VISITORS REACHES TO THE GALLERY WHERE PANORAMIC PAINTING, WHICH REFLECTS THE HISTORY OF THE CITY, IS LOCATED. THERE ARE ALSO SOME OTHER FUNCTIONS ADDED TO THIS COMPLEX, THESE ARE MULTI-PURPOSE ROOM, CINEVISION, AND SCULPTURE EXHIBITION. PANORAMIC SHAPE OF THE MUSEUM STRUCTURE THAT HAS BEEN CREATED WITH THE EXHIBITION HALLS CREAT CONNECTION BETWEEN PAST AND PRESENT.
