The design presents a careful exploration of themes related to witchcraft, organized to provide both exhibition and quiet reflection. The layout consists of various spaces that facilitate visitor engagement with historical narratives. Designers focused on accessibility, allowing easy movement through areas created for both display and contemplation, enhancing the overall experience.

Special Gallery

The Special Gallery functions as the main exhibition space, aimed at showcasing curated displays that delve into the historical context of witchcraft. Its location encourages visitors to gather and engage with the content presented. The open design allows for versatility in exhibits while promoting an uninterrupted flow of movement, making it easier for visitors to absorb the information.

Functional Spaces

Integrated into the design are essential functional spaces, including an Equipment Room and Storage areas. These support the daily operations of the gallery, ensuring that exhibits are well-maintained and efficiently presented. The design keeps these spaces out of sight, helping to maintain focus on the exhibition while also facilitating smooth logistics behind the scenes.

Circulation and Contemplation

Stairs within the layout ensure easy access to different levels, enhancing the experience of moving between exhibition and contemplation areas. Visitors can transition naturally, encouraging exploration of each space at their own pace. The contemplation areas provide moments for reflection, enabling visitors to ponder the complex themes surrounding witchcraft and its societal implications.

Design Details

Distinct design elements contribute to the project’s thematic exploration. The inclusion of the Stele Pool adds a water feature that symbolizes purification and reflection. As people move through the gallery, the interaction of light and water creates a calming atmosphere. This thoughtful integration of reflective spaces invites visitors to engage more deeply with the narratives presented, fostering a comprehensive understanding of the historical beliefs surrounding witchcraft.
