Brief About The Project:
A literary museum that challenges the typology of museums, The Museum of Words and Worlds is designed to promote the Egyptian legacy of literature and revive the power of the written word. A museum that features no objects on display, The Museum of Words and Worlds captures the essence of literary works by utilizing the endless aspects of architecture of space, providing the user with a real life experience of an art that was previously contained in a two dimensional medium. A project that recuperates the power of architecture in being a direct channel of communication with the people.
