Changsha Museum, Changsha

Changsha Museum is located in Hunan Changsha BinJiang Cultural Hub with a total build in area of 7378 Square meter. The museum which has 4 exhibition halls, is divided into the "Ancient History" and the "Modern History" zones.

From the understanding of the architecture, and dealing with the complexity of the contents and contexts, the design team uses a minimalist approach to showcase the exhibits. There is attempt to create the unique atmosphere of Changsha history through clever planning, scene

re-enactment, technology integration, colour transition, contents extraction, and language re-interpretation.

Changsha Museum is slated to be one of the Hunan's and Changsha's Landmark. Beside being a cultural pillar, it is also the place where people can enjoy and most importantly, it is the epitome of Changsha's cultural image to the world.
