The New Museum of Ethnography, Budapest Serves Modern Museum Needs<\/h3>\r\n

NAPUR Architect introduces the new Museum of Ethnography, Budapest, a multiple award-winning building forming part of Europe\u2019s largest urban-cultural development, Liget Budapest Project. The building's dynamic yet simple lines simultaneously harmonize with the park environment and communicate with the surrounding urban area. The City Park (V\u00e1rosliget) is a familiar venue for the Museum of Ethnography: its collection debuted here at the 1896 Millennium Exhibition.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Museum's collection, which now comprises 250 thousand items from the Carpathian Basin, and from every corner of the world, has been hosted by various facilities since its establishment in 1872. However, never in its history did it operate in a building designed specifically to cater to its needs. The current location, once home to the Hungarian Curia, is far from suitable in terms of meeting the requirements of a museum, and is severely limited in terms of space and opportunities.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n

Following an international design competition, successful construction, and completion in May 2022, the Museum of Ethnography was finally given a new home in a truly modern building of an all-round world-class standard that will satisfy professional requirements, while catering to the needs of the collection and visitors alike.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n

NAPUR Architect Ltd. (Lead Architect: Marcel FERENCZ) won over an international jury with a project distinguished by a dynamic yet simple design that harmonizes with the natural environment of the park, while communicating with the urban texture of its surroundings. The gently curving lines enable the building to function as a gateway and a passage linking the city and the park. Sixty percent of the structure is under ground level and, thanks to the landscaped roof and the transparency of the sections above the ground, the new museum is adapted to its environment in its scale too. The grass-covered roof area will be a pleasant community space greeting visitors to V\u00e1rosliget.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n

The spectacular trademark of the building is the glass curtainwall surrounding the landscaped roof garden, reminiscent of two intertwined hillsides, with a unique characteristic consisting of nearly half a million pixels, a raster made by metal grid based on ethnographic motifs selected from the museum's Hungarian and international collections. The pixels were inserted into a laser-cut aluminum grid by a special robot, with more than 2,000 attached to the building. The small cubes were made up of 20 Hungarian and 20 international contemporary reinterpretations of ethnographic motifs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n

The building\u2019s iconic design hides a number of special technological solutions, with its arched wings supported by a post-tensioned structure used in the construction of bridges. This represents a rare application of the technology in public buildings, not only in Hungary but in the whole of Europe.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Museum of Ethnography is already recognized as one of the most exciting contemporary buildings on the continent. Evidence of that, it was voted Best Mega Futura Project of Europe at the MIPIM Awards 2017, and has won the fiercely contested title of World\u2019s Best Architecture at the 2018 International Property Awards. The project was one of over 1,700 entries from 115 countries, scrutinized by a judging committee chaired by four UK Lords, as well as over 80 global experts.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n

The new functions and flexible spaces of the modern and state-of-the-art museum building will facilitate the understanding of the historical heritage embodied by the collection, as well as the various aspects of contemporary society. Besides passing down this historical heritage, the realization of more recent professional and research themes and perspectives continues to be among the priority objectives of the museum, as confirmed by its mission. The creatively built spaces will open up new opportunities to communicate with visitors, enabling the presentation of the everyday objects, phenomena, and ideas of the past and the present, side by side.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n

The spaces of the new building also reflect the functions and methodological attitudes of 21st century museum operation: social dialogue, community operation, participation, accessibility, diversity, polyphony, inclusion, transparency, sustainability, and experientialism.\u00a0The purpose-built museum was designed with maximum consideration for the required functions, and thus facilitates the large-scale, modern, user-friendly operation of the institution to a significant degree. It also provides a visually enticing and diverse display of mankind\u2019s material and spiritual heritage, as well as the collection comprising Hungarian and international material.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n
