Through this Design, PT. Arkonin achieves a first prize IAI award organized by the IAI & local government of DKI, Jakarta recently on August 2006.

Configuration of the new buildings is design with separated composition of simple mass pattern, through its functional space and forms the new building appear as a background of the existing contemplative Museum Joang 45.

Open space between the original building and the new building is surrounded by the arrangement of vertical plane forming a curve line position generating a moving motion and a feeling of silence (contemplative). This vertical element also functions as sun shield. The open space is also design horizontally, creating an endless wave pattern, with the existing Museum Joang 45 as its starting point this visualize the continuous spirit to struggle.

According to history, the Museum Joang 45 was a place where youthful generation gathered to strive for independence. With the analogy of the Museum’s history, the supporting buildings façade is design resembling a row of youthful generation using shields as a defense symbolizes the spirit to fight for independence. The connecting building façade exploit glass material to reflect the function of the Museum, which is also utilize as an exhibition Hall.

Circulation in the new building is design with ramps, to facilitate visitors with a convenient approach to encircle the building complex. The experience of walking through these ramps to the second floor while viewing towards the open space / plaza enhances the contemplative atmosphere. The exhibition area is design with linear flow circulation to exploit the rooms more optimal with the intention of visitors will not overlook the display exhibited by The Museum.

The space programming offers a sequence of experience; it builds up emotional sensation through natural lighting and indoor illumination. The lighting effects influence the display exhibited by the Museum. For example at the supporting building front façade is insufficient of natural lighting with the intention of displaying collections during colonialism and throughout defending the independency period. The back façade is sufficient in lighting; this part of the room displays collections during the independence / freedom era.

Air circulation offers several alternatives toward energy consumption, not all rooms require air-conditioning therefore at some area contain natural air ventilation.
