Museum of the Ancient Nile: Arquideas alla ricerca di un museo capace di avvolgere il visitatore nella storia del Nilo

concorso internazionale di idee

Arquideas lancia il concorso internazionale di idee per studenti di architettura e giovani architetti Museum of the Ancient Nile (MoAN) Egypt, con il quale si richiede ai partecipanti di progettare un museo capace di immergere completamente i visitatori nella storia dell'Antico Nilo, trasformando il tour in una vera e propria esperienza per i turisti che desiderano conoscere lo sviluppo della civiltà egiziana

Grazie a una location privilegiata, lo spazio proposto diventerà una tappa obbligatoria per chi visiterà l'area del grande fiume, come se fosse un preambolo della storia, della mitologia, dei monumenti che la regione ospita. Il MoAN offrirà uno spazio espositivo destinato a diventare un punto di riferimento per il Nilo e sarà perfettamente integrato con il paesaggio che circonda la zona e che offre ai visitatori un'esperienza decisamente singolare.

Attraverso la competizione Arquideas vuole incoraggiare a partecipare nella discussione architettonica contemporanea, dando vita a una selezione di proposte qualitativamente elevate e capaci di ipotizzare valide soluzioni di design.

Arquideas is a community of students and young professionals working in the world of architecture and design whose main objective is to showcase the talent and creativity of its young members, thereby bridging the gap between the academic and professional spheres of architecture and design.

Through its competitions, Arquideas seeks to encourage its community to participate in current architectural discussion, generating a selection of quality proposals that can provide solutions to the different challenges set forth in the contests.

The objective of this competition for architecture students and young architects, Museum of the Ancient Nile (MoAN) Egypt, consists in conceiving of a museum that will submerge visitors in the ancient Nile and become an essential experience for tourists who wish to comprehend how Egyptian civilization proliferated. Thanks to its privileged location, the proposed space will become an obligatory stop for people visiting the river, as a preamble to the history, mythology and monuments that the region contains. A global focal point for tourism that is capable of transmitting the importance of the ancient Nile for the history of Humanity. The MoAN will provide an exhibition space that is a reference point for the Nile, integrated into the landscape and offering visitors a singular experience.
