Design Concept

This museum celebrates the beauty of arched architecture and glass craftsmanship through light and modern design. At the entrance, an arched glass hallway uses textured glass to bend natural light into soft glowing patterns, enhanced by mirrored floors and smart lighting that shifts with the time of day, blending reality and illusion.



The main gallery features arched ceilings with prism-like structures that scatter sunlight into rainbows. At night, laser projections dance across glass surfaces, merging technology with nature. Curved glass walls, frosted screens, and hanging glass pieces play with light and shadow, turning exhibits into dynamic visual stories.



Materials balance simplicity and texture: dark matte walls and stone floors highlight the glass’s clarity. Specially curved display cases use climate control and non-reflective glass to protect artifacts. The layout mixes Eastern-inspired winding paths with Western symmetry, creating a cultural dialogue through design.



By combining clean shapes, flowing light, and thoughtful material contrasts, the space transforms glass art into an immersive experience. It becomes a modern sanctuary where light, form, and craftsmanship unite, inviting visitors to explore glass as both art and emotion.
