Our winning design is a wayfinding system that is especially suitable for this unique site. The challenge of the wayfinding is to answer the needs of 500,000 visitors a year while at the same time cope with the strict regulations of the monument conservation.

Our conceptual approach is: quantitatively quiet - qualitatively loud.
