Building Type: Living Museum


A living museum is a type of museum, in which historical events showing the life in ancient times are performed, especially in ethnographic or historical views, or processes for producing a commercial product in terms of technical and technological developments are shown, especially the craft. It is a type of museum that recreates to the fullest extent conditions of a culture, natural environment or historical period. Sometimes, a drama performing group of historical re enactment of historical scenes in historical buildings is considered as a living museum.

Proposed Museum Typology
The idea is to create a cultural living museum where visitors can get a flavor of various ethnic cultures which are the part of their time and space. They need to understand that their timeline is a cultural amalgamation of various other ethnic timelines.
