The museum is a functional complex of exhibition, education, culture and entertainment that integrates collection, preservation, repair, research, exhibition, education, entertainment and other functions. In order to meet the functional needs of different aspects, museum builders usually do targeted functional area division design at the beginning of construction.
How is the functional display area of the modern museum planned? The curator of the Guoyuan exhibition answered for everyone.
The exhibition area is the first major functional area of the museum to open to the outside world, and this area usually accounts for about 30% of the building area of a museum, including fixed basic exhibition halls, temporary exhibition halls and other exhibition areas. In the case of proper planning, it is generally required that there is a certain logical relationship between the exhibition areas, taking into account the cultural dissemination and entertainment experience functions of the exhibition area.
The second functional area is the public service and science education area. This part of the area generally includes service centers, education centers, information centers, academic lecture halls, multi-purpose halls, broadcasting rooms, infirmaries, audience restaurants and cultural derivative shops.
The third functional area is the collection management area. It generally includes collection warehouses, collection technology areas, business and research rooms, etc.
The fourth functional area is the office area. Including general administrative offices, conference rooms, libraries, archives, etc.
The fifth area is the property management system. Including general administrative warehouse, security room, maintenance center, water supply and drainage room, air conditioning system room, high pressure system room, staff canteen, cleaning room and equipment room.
The sixth functional area is the intelligent management system room, which can realize the intensive management of the entire library through the intelligent central control system. The relative area of the area will be very small, including buildings with automatic control systems and weak current systems. In addition, there are areas outside the building, such as green spaces, outdoor seating areas, parking lots and other facilities.
How to plan the functional display partition of the modern museum?
Most of the conventional comprehensive museums have the characteristics of full function, large volume, strong academicity, etc., and the construction cost is high and the cycle is long, so it is usually cautious in the early stage of construction. In recent years, the wave of thematic museum construction has begun to rise in China, such as tea museum, ceramic museum, aerospace museum, etc., such museums are relatively small in size, and the overall functional zoning planning will also be adjusted.
