Project idea

"A PSALM OF LIFE" embodies the sincere pursuit of the value of life, and is not only a memorial museum, but also a public space that integrates with local life and highlights regional characteristics. The design aims to let visitors feel the dignity, courage and hope of life, and realize the true meaning of life through daily experience. The open plaza encourages residents to share their life stories and intertwines past heroics with current life; the buildings and exhibition halls carry the traces of time and the weight of life, creating a historical atmosphere in which visitors can immerse themselves and appreciate the beauty of life. Schindler's Ark North celebrates life, unites historical memories with contemporary life, and conveys positive life values.
