Throughout history, people have built shelters that suit the environment in which they live. Based on a set of criteria - including access to tools, availability of materials and type of climate - people from all over the world are constantly reinterpreting, re-imagining, redefining the meaning of home and so people have built theirs over the centuries.
For many of us, a home is a four-sided building on a permanent foundation. But for others, it's an igloo, a cave, or even a boat. In the following diploma will be explored, will be organized in program and design, the idea of a museum for the world Architectural Art, the way and the achievements of human ingenuity in the construction of houses in different natural environments.
This museum includes a system of spaces protected from the weather, underground with an exhibition core, leisure, knowledge and collective events, as well as a hotel unit. More specifically, there are functions such as warehouses and offices to serve the staff of this museum.
Also, in the units where they contribute to the leisure and comfort of the visitors there are two (2) restaurants, two (2) small cinema spaces, a space for explanation and analysis of the exhibits, a shop for the sale of relevant souvenirs, and a library with some interactive spaces for better interpretationof "dwell".
Our aim is for the proposal to include in addition technological-aesthetic configurations for energy autonomy, thermal balance, functional atmospheric comfort (heat, sun, ventilation, shading) as well as additional systems of passive behavior and reduced ecological footprint. Therefore, taking advantage of the floor plan of the exhibition space, where it will be located on the ground, photovoltaic systems and technical lighting systems were placed under them.
