DESCRIPTION
The Treasure
The central idea of the project derives from the Lubomirski
Princes Museum’s precious content of the exhibition material. A special box is therefore
proposed to accommodate the treasures of the museum: the arts exhibition on the
ground floor, the numismatic exhibition on the first, the treasury on the
second and the Lviv panorama on the third and fourth floors. The treasury box (szkatuła)
is placed inside a large void in the middle of the plot, as a totem, standing
out of its surroundings, thus highlighting its importance. On the same time it
allows the public flows to develop all around it, creating visual connections
to the historic urban context around the building.
