Abstract
The Palestinian Museum is a project not only for the world, but for all Palestinians, especially refugees and future generations, to remain aware of their history and rights and the reality of the usurper occupier to urge them to uphold their land and their right to return and self-determination as well as a message to the Zionist races that this land is our land and will remain so and will not be able to Take us out whatever they do, even if they annihilated us from our father's reel, even if they carried out a thousand massacres such as Sabra, Shatila, Deir Yassin and Jenin camp ...
This paper examines the different aspects of the project from several references.
The first chapter tells a brief summary of the ancient and modern history of Palestine.
The second chapter defines the nature of the museum, its functions and classifications in the world. It also discusses the status of museums in Palestine and mentioned the attempts of the Israelis to Judaize and steal our cultural and historical heritage.
The third chapter deals with the basics of museum design, its components and the factors influencing its architectural formulation.
Chapter 4 presents the means and methods of display equipment in museum galleries and analyzes this from basic considerations in design.
Concept: Make a longitudinal mass between the beginning of the land (the main entrance) and the end of the land (which reaches the Old City.
The work of two parallel blocks commensurate with the nature of the topographic land, each of which the spaces of the museum display graded according to the times experienced by the Palestinian state so that when we escalate we reach an advanced stage of Palestinian history until we reach the current stage in which we live.
The two blocks are mediated by a triangle-shaped vacuum with a metal structural system made of glass in which the main passage between the two blocks is formed. This space is a break for visitors to the museum.
The outdoor garden is designed with simple lines and planting various trees that characterize Palestine.
