PROJECT STATEMENT
The building is submerged to emphasize its deeper connection to the hills and its main axis towards the marshland and the restoration area. In this way, it emphasizes the hierarchal purpose of the exhibition (history from the display) and education. The secondary axis, on the other hand, connects itself to the hills and the existing nectar garden facing the picnic areas, emphasizing recreation, preservation and nature experiences.
