TOPIC:

Museum of design and architecture.

SUB- TOPIC:
Effect of Light on space, human mood and psychology

NEED OF STUDY:
In India architecture along with architects is not celebrated and
appreciated by the people. They are unaware, how important architect’s
contribution is to developing the society.

There is no place in India where multiple architect’s work is preserved,


researched and exhibited on permanent basis thus providing the need to
facilitate such a museum of architecture where students, architects and
common people can understand, study and analyse the works and the relics.

Lighting is a critical component in a museum environment because the


space enables visitors to see objects, experience new sights and react to the
surrounding environment. Typically, environments have two types of light–
natural and artificial. For a museum, the role of light is an essential part of
creating an atmosphere prime for discovery, while also preserving artefacts.

AIM:
The purpose of the museum is to showcase for the work of important
regional, national, and international designers, providing a forum for
contemporary issues in architecture, urbanism, and design.

Encourage scholarly architectural research by organising and uniting in


fellowship the Architects of India to promote aesthetic, scientific and practical
efficiency of the profession both in Practice and in Education and to foster
innovative design practices.

Also to promote public awareness of the role architecture and design in


everyday life and on society, through exhibits, symposia, multi-disciplinary
projects, educational programs, and public outreach to the design community
as well as the public by focusing on the interdisciplinary aspects of
the architecture. Borrowing architecture critic Paul Goldberger’s words, ‘why
architecture matters’.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
• promotion of better architecture and built environment

• helping everyone understand and appreciate the potential of architecture


and design.

• encouraging public engagement and demand for excellence in art, design


and architecture.

• Preserve architectural drawings and models of famous architects.


SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
• The objective of my research is to study qualitative and
quantitative aspects of museum lighting design in existing installations.

• The museum design will guide the visitors to discover, explore and
learn about history in a creative environment.

• Lighting plays a significant role in developing interaction between


humans and museum artifacts in one defined space.

• The goal of a museum is to create an interactive experience for


the guests, as well as preserve the condition of artifacts.

SCOPE & LIMITATION:


Exibiting many architectural relics, drawings and models of numerous
architects under one permanent roof is a unique solution which is unavailable
anywhere in the country.
The use of light is related to geometrical shapes, colours, and many
things. The concept of light can give lot of scope to think and achieve the
functional spaces more lively and with lot of expression.
Use of light in architecture is a very vast topic and extent of research will
have to be defined.
This can be a very difficult balancing act between meeting preservation
needs and forming interactive experiences that achieve the goal of the
museum integrating with se of light.
