Our entry for the international competition for the New Archaeological Museum of Sparta (NAMS).

The architectural concept behind the proposal for the new NAMS facility is not only to celebrate the legacy of ancient Sparta but also to create a modern monument for the future - a building that will place modern Sparta on the world architectural map.
Although the museum remains the main core of the use of the new building, the program and spaces that are created adds an additional identity to its function: A state of the art research and development facility for archaeology that will become a point of reference for the city of Sparta. A facility that will be able to accommodate a number of high profile events as well to become the new place to be for entertainment and recreation.
The proposal links the museum with the heritage of mythical Sparta from antiquity to the present day, associating the museum's location with the neighbouring archaeological site, the excavation findings as well as reconnecting Sparta with Taygetos and Evrotas. Additionally, the proposal connects the new museum to the abandoned listed building whilst promoting and contributing to the architecture of Zenetos building as a representative example of the Greek post-war industrial architecture which will now be complete with the new extension.
