- Functional connections and spatial transformation
• 2 entrances to the individual zones from those shown in the Functional Program diagram;
• The project allows the transformability of the functional areas in the building and the possibility to restructure the spaces according to the different artistic events that will take place;
• The interior of the building provides a changing environment, the possibility to form "spaces within spaces" (with the help of furniture, light partitions and structures) and easy future transformations;
• The museum allows the use of modern forms of technological audio and video presentation, publication of activities on the Internet and participation in projects and programs.
• Additionally, technical rooms, a children's corner, a panoramic cafe, an interactive hall, and a multifunctional hall have been designed and planned. The multifunctional hall was developed based on the geometry of the existing bridge (one of the symbols of Svilengrad) built in the 15th century.
Park environment - Reconstruction of the existing park has been done, including a lapidarium, a new center of the park, in the form of a Byzantine cross and a statue of a horse, symbolizing the Bulgarian ambition and country. The alley network was designed based on the idea of Roman town planning.

Relief - leveled, relatively flat

GOALS
The land intended for the construction of a historical museum of Svilengrad has a high potential for the development of culture, education, thematic entertainment, and the economy of the city. With the construction of a socially significant building on this site, Svilengrad has the opportunity to develop a secondary cultural urban center that:
• Enriches the existing city center with a new public space for culture, for education, for the development of educational thematic tourism, for the development of cultural industries, etc.;
• Provides conditions for the performance of a wide range of artistic events (theatre, music, visual arts, architecture, archeology, etc.), as well as for educational and social activities;
• Connects fully and conflict-free with the surrounding urban, historical, including park environment;
• Exercises a "regenerating" effect on the neighborhood and surrounding spaces;
• Has a visually recognizable architectural image;
• It is modern, high-tech and complies with environmental requirements.

DESIGN
A conceptual project and volume-spatial concept was developed for the building of the historical museum in Svilengrad, which:
• It is adapted to the features of the surrounding urban and park environment:
• Reflects the urban planning requirements for the place and considering the transport and pedestrian flows - the "communication" between the park, the designed museum building and the square space in front of the city library building should be integrative;
• Decides rationally the function of the building, according to the provided functional program;
• Takes into account the location of the object in the park environment;
• Making direct contact between the museum building and the park;
• Complies with the requirements of ZUT and Ordinance No. 7;
• Provides an accessible environment (around and in the building);
• Complies with the requirements for evacuation from buildings and premises for mass gatherings of people - number of exits, width of corridors, fixed seats for the audience and others, according to the requirements of Ordinance No. Из-1971 on construction and technical rules and norms for ensuring safety in case of fire.


VOLUME AND SPATIAL SOLUTION - a ground floor with an atrium and transition spaces and 2 floors with a structural height of 4m are being developed. ; 3 m.; 3 m. Total height above ground level 10.00m. The building is on a corner plot and is drawn on the regulation line. It is fully in line with the silhouette plans and is designed so as not to overshadow the buildings across the streets. 2 underground floors with a reduced height (2.5 m.) for glass and service area have also been designed. (there are two floors due to the need for space on assignment.)
EXPOSURE - due to its rectangular shape and REQUIREMENTS FOR PASSIVE LIGHTING, each facade has been developed independently. Simulated motion of the sun was studied, obeying the basic laws of light propagation and refraction and through different media and materials.

The change of its position during the different seasons is also taken into account. (start and end of day marked as range)
Basic law of propagation of light - The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
Refraction:
DEVELOPMENT:
CONSTANT NATURAL PASSIVE SIDE LIGHTING during working hours is achieved. For this purpose, the main directions and the position of each facade were used:

SOUTH:

EAST AND WEST:

NORTH:

At the same time, with this solution, the problem with the orientation for the installation of solar panels, oriented and installed on the concrete elements, is solved. The area of the building suitable for the installation of solar panels is increased many times, except for the solar protection installed above the building 622 sq.m.. 3 more facades can be used without the northern one, multiplied as an area with a coefficient approximately equal to 2.5:
i.e. (E+W+S)*2.5= (232+102+208)*2.5=542*2.5=1355 sq.m.
i.e. approximately 2000 sq.m. SUITABLE AREAS FOR INSTALLATION OF SOLAR PANELS, which roughly makes a small solar farm sufficient to provide the energy of the building itself for both heating and ventilation, with enough surplus to power several neighboring buildings.
Other advantages of the idea of the TRIANGULAR ELEMENTS from the facade are the BUFFER ZONES in the triangle, combined with a suitable combination of glazing units, would result in an additional area of air, which in itself is an insulator, i.e. expensive external insulation is rendered useless and a RELATIVELY CONSTANT MICROCLIMATE will be achieved in the completed building (very necessary for the exhibits inside).
CONSTRUCTION - reinforced concrete

MATERIALS USED – reinforced concrete, polished concrete and/or stamped concrete, limestone, kamak, wood.
Due to the favorable climate, the provided materials are based on concrete - sanded and stamped. As an accent for the construction of the stairs, limestone is planned, the central Roman cross in the atrium of the building is planned to be made of stone, like the roads made in ancient times. The most special part is the constant natural facade passive lighting, due to the observance of the basic laws of optics and the theory of light propagation.

Handrails - apart from the standard legal handrails, planters - containers with a width of 0.6m are used for external handrails. , length 1.2-6 m., height 1.2 m.
ACCESSIBILITY OF THE ENVIRONMENT - According to the current regulations.
Elevators - 2 in total, with 2 stairwells for evacuation.
