Abstract:
This thesis deals with literature study done for designing museums. It is studied for
the thesis Aerospace museum. Museum is an institution which cares for collection of
artifacts and other important objects to preserve and conserve history. How visitors
circulate in the museum galleries that gives us the broad perspective of the
circulation of a museum. Overall it depends on the size of galleries and also exhibits
which we need to exhibit in the museum. The term space syntax encompasses a set
of theories and techniques for the analysis of spatial configurations. The general idea
is that spaces can be broken down into components, analyzed as networks of
choices, then represented as maps and graphs that describe the relative connectivity
and integration of those spaces. It rests on three basic conceptions of space. What
dimensions of our experience of museums are determined by the way galleries and
objects are organized spatially? These questions are addressed in this study and the
architectural drawings of the thesis are made accordingly as per the background
study of this thesis.
