Redesign of the didactic access to the tunnel system Competition entry, 3rd place Our concept “points and lines” consists of two elements: points of information and lines of paths between them. This concept includes the didactic idea that the line of light guides the visitors and the information columns (points) mark the destinations. The information columns or information light sculptures convey the history and provide the guided tours with gathering points where visitors can receive visual information together and be explained together by the tour. The light lines are guiding elements that lead to these information points and at the same time illuminate the room. Both the information modules and the lighting differ significantly in their design from the original surroundings and thereby convey a distance to the original historical tunnel system. Since the exhibition elements are moved away from the walls and ceiling, they expose them or the entire surrounding space. We are pleased that we were able to achieve third place in this competition with numerous renowned participants. You can find our concept in detail here.
