Fundão, Portugal · Civic + Cultural
Fundão Civic Plaza + Museum.
A civic and cultural study connecting public realm, museum experience, arrival, movement, orientation and environmental communication into one coherent spatial system.
Project Study
One public experience.
The project is conceived as a civic journey rather than a museum object in isolation. The experience begins in the public realm, where the plaza, arrival sequence and movement through the site prepare the visitor before entry, allowing the architecture and surrounding city to become part of the museum experience itself.
Inside and outside, orientation is designed through spatial cues, thresholds, views and information rather than treated as a separate signage layer. The aim is a legible sequence in which plaza, museum, landscape and interpretation reinforce one another, making movement through the place part of how the visitor understands it.
