Design of National War Museum by Sidharth Associates and team

1. The monumental design of the National war museum celebrates the strength of Indian Armed forces & their victories. The dynamic concept of Architectural expression gracefully blends the modern idea of the building with the
historic background. The huge building tactfully merges in the neighborhood has potential to be an icon of The city with the major historic element around. The Perforated gap has been created at ground and first floor between lower
and upper part of the Museum to replant the existing tree creates Majestic Natural Covered Plaza for the Visitors.The color & texture proposed in the design smoothly blend with the color of the native structure in neighborhood
& city.The conceived building form has been adopted to maximize use of wind flow on the site at the same time minimizing the impact of heat gain. The Building has been designed to function in two parts, ‘underground & upper
ground’ symbolizes two timelines, ‘PAST & PRESENT’ which has been interlinked with a vertically stacked space reflects future & advancement of Indian armed forces.The upper gallery starts with recent wars scenes & its artifacts
follow the older wars & artifacts, as we move forward & downward. The central courtyard acts as a vertical museum with AR/VR technology where people can move along with the information about the three armed forces. This part
also hands vertically & holds horizontally Indian wars, artifacts & weapons.On the first-floor, battle scenes have been created in a natural array along with the multisensor display.The basement gallery is dedicated to ‘Indo-Pak’ war
& prehistoric display along with audio-visual labs .
