This is how the New Archaeological Museum of Athens will be (Photo Album)

February 17, 2023

The design of the Chipperfield-Tombazi offices for the Archaeological Museum focuses on a green garden over two floors, a main entrance that will be promoted as the street, and "dirty" walls that will give the feeling of an underground excavation.

The garden will offer some distance from the noise of the city and will be home to pine trees, oak trees and decorative bushes. It will be accessible from all sides, while at its center there will be a space that will aspire to be a meeting point for both museum visitors and Athens residents. The design has been undertaken by the Belgian office of landscape architecture Wirtz International.

Elevated as it will be, the garden that will be designed throughout the museum's premises will offer some distance from the noise of the city and will be home to pine trees, oak trees and decorative bushes, where it will refer to the parks of the 19th century Greece, but also to the ancient ideal public gathering space for all citizens.
