6.3. Integration and Evolution of Design and Structure

This section not only illustrates the distinct characteristics of the core and shards but also
explains how these elements synergize to narrate the story of war. The design and structural
systems are not mere architectural features but are deeply embedded with symbolic
meanings that reinforce the museum's narrative. The evolution of these structures from
conceptual diagrams to fully realized architectural forms showcases the meticulous planning
and innovative execution inherent in the project. This comprehensive approach ensures that
every aspect of the museum's design is purposeful, enhancing both the visitor's experience
and the overall thematic expression of the museum.

6.4. Design and Translation of Stages into Spaces

Rumination

This initial stage, set in a narrow, tunnel-like space, features fragmented walls that evoke the
undercurrents of looming conflict. The gradual ramping up within this space symbolically
leads visitors towards the inevitable escalation, mirroring the buildup of tension before war.
