Archaeologies of Narratives the museumConnecting point between old Athens and new Athens

Athens is one of the world’s oldest cities, with its history spanning around 3,400 years, and the earliest human presence around the 11th-17th millennium BC. Classical Athens was a powerful city-state that holds a center for the arts, learning and philosophy. Becuase of it’s long history, Athens has a lot of artifacts on small streets and public spaces

However, there is no connection with old artifacts and with new development. As time passes by,the system for history alos should change accoring to the system of society.

Using the a historical footprint, I propose an exhibition for ancient Agora. Also some parts exhibit media art or gra�ti using current city conditions.

By making di�erent level platfroms, visitors can see a exhibition wall or stair plazas.

How to �gure out the building’s shape?
