Narrative Installation

Narrative Installation is a history museum created for an art academy campus in Guangzhou, China. The project transforms an existing campus building into a spatial narrative device that combines architecture, exhibition, landscape, and immersive media. Nine thematic zones are arranged in a loop across about 2315 square meters and are linked by a central foyer with two entrances. Touch panels, motion-activated visuals, and narrative lighting allow visitors to move at their own pace. Lightweight structural retrofitting supports flexible spatial change.
