Project for an Olympic Museum in Athens - International Competition - Shortlisted Project
As the Olympic Games become more competitive and challenging with each new event, the proposed project aimed to create a museum that reflects this dynamic evolution.
The volumes dominate the site and have a clear orientation towards the Acropolis. The shape of the building is in sync with the topological dynamics, creating a gradual transition from the densely populated residential quarter located in the south, to the park in the north. The spaces inside are organised to allow optimum visitor flow through every exhibition.
The museum’s terrace completes the composition, overlooking breathtaking natural vistas and historical sites. Below the entrance level, a public square is created. The public square offers additional free space for the museum and serves as a public recreation area for nearby residences.
