Chapter No:1 Introduction
Chapter No:1 INTRODUCTION:
It is stated that we are growing up as a country which have culture identity, that we take pride in our culture, that we are actually elevating it officially recognizing it and presenting it in a treasure house or mosque etc. We are asserting that we are proud many civilization way and we are displaying our regional heritage for the rest of the world to view it as well. The reason of selecting this topic based on five-year experience of architecture and visiting the historical monuments, places in different region of Pakistan such as Indus valley civilization Museums and also the sites of civilization in cholistan taxila and Sahiwal etc. I thought this thesis is the best to elaborate the hidden historical value of south Punjab. which it is unforgotten Architecture Historic Monuments beside to save the runs of National and international value of mankind and his life from spreading out. Lastly I hope this thesis report will fulfil the requirements and will be valuable collection on a words about Multan history, Museum study for the university of Gujrat library and will encourage other to find their thesis.

Chapter No:2 History of Multan
Chapter No:2 Brief history of Multan:
The living city of Multan is reputed to be at least 5000 years old with a recorded history of about 2500 years. The history of Multan prior to the arrival of Arabs in the 8th century A.D is obscure. Alexander is said to have passed through the district in about 325-326 B.C, but his route cannot be traced. It is probable that Multan was the city of Malli which Alexander stormed and where he was wounded. About 327 B.C. the Macedonians were ousted by Chandragupta and the Maurya dynasty remained in power till the beginning of the second century A.D. From 30 B.C to 470 A.D., the Kushan dynasty ruled over the area, and from 470 A.D to 550 A.D. At the time the Arabs first came to Sindh, the country was ruled by Raja Chach, a Brahmin. Multan was conquered by Arabs under Muhammad Bin Qasim in 712 A.D. after defeating Raja Dahir, a descendant of Chach. Thereafter, the town remained for the three centuries the outpost of Islam in India, under the caliph of Baghdad. It remained nominally subject to the Lodhies, Ghaznavids and Muhammad Ghauri upto the end of 12th century. From the beginning of the 13th century for the next three centuries, the history of Multan is practically the history of the incursions from western and central Asia. In 1397 came the invasion by Taimur, whose troops occupied Uch and Multan, sacked Tulamba, and raided the Kohkhars of Ravi and past across Biass to Pakpattan and Delhi. In 1528, comes the peace full transfer of the province of Multan to the emissaries of the Mughal Emperor Babar. Under the Mughal Emperors, Multan enjoyed a long period of peace between 1528-1748 and was known as Dar-ul-Aman. In 1752 Multan became a province owing allegiance to Afghan kings. It was then ruled by Pathan governors and Daud Putra chiefs of Bahawlpur for some time. After 1771, Multan witnessed continued warfare between Sikhs and the Nawabs of Multan. Between 1818 and 1845, it remained under the Sikh rule and finally came under the British rule in 1849. Architectural Style: Multan and its environs possess numerous grand edifies representing different faiths, Hindu, Muslim, Sikh and Christian. The architecture of the Buddhist era is no longer in existence and only some idea could be conceived through the travelogues and accounts left by the travelers and historians. It should be asserted here that the architecture of Multan is essentially and mainly an outcome of the religious faith f its people. Secular traditions, though had some impact but they did not divert the focus of the builders in building for secular purposes, with as much interest as they look in building manifesting their religious faiths. This is also true for the other faiths that prevailed in this era. • Hindu Period:
The most important center of Shivite worship inn northern India, with perhaps the biggest temple of Sun god to which devotees flocked from all corners of subcontinent. The temple of Sun god was famous as repository of gold and riches. Although no traces of its structural remains exists now, its antiquity may be estimate to the early centuries of the Christian era. • Early Muslim Period:
The style began with Baha-ud-Din Zakariya and culminated into the tomb of Shah Rukn-i-Alam which has been admired as one of the most splendid memorials ever erected in honor of the dead.” These two memorials served as perfect models for the future architect, who continued imitating them for well over six hundred years. The Multan Style, though a local and almost independent development, however indicates strong influences of the tomb architecture in Central Asia and Euphrates Valley. A fact quite easily understood due to the fact

Chapter No:2 History of Multan
that the exponent of this style Baha-ud-Din Zakariya himself belonged to and had proceeded to Bakhara, Mawar-al-Nahr and Madina to complete his religious education and then to Bagded to get spiritual training under the guidance of the great Shahb-al-Din Suharwardi. Due to repeated destruction of this city by the invaders no ancient structures prior to the first half of the 12th century AD have survived however more than two dozens of them are still standing on the soil of Pakistan to how the vigor and popularity of the style. • Moghul Period:
The Moghuls ruled Multan from 1526 A.D. During this period a number of mosques and royal building were erected of which few exists to testify the Moghul supremacy. There is no imperial Moghul building in Multan. The Eidgah, Wail Muhammad Mosque, Sawi Mosque, Am-khas Bagh belong to local schools or are the building build by the Governor of Multan. Now we will discuss the Moghul buildings separately. • Sikh Period:
During the sikh period destruction and damages to the monuments and other buildings has been immense. The Sikhs. As described earlier, converted several tombs and mosques in to gurdvaras and store houses and mosques magazines. The bombardment was so heavy and severe that almost half of the tomb of Hazrat Baha-ud-Din Zakariya collapased. Sikh rule over Multan lasted only forty years. During this period Darbar was in Lahore, while in Multan was a state. The influence of Sikh Architecture can only be seen in the elements of the walled city as they did not build any building. • Colonial Period:
The British after the conquest of Multan took possession of the building which existed. They converted them into the residences, headquarters of their administrative bodies. The next step was the construction of cantt for the defense; as it was customary of the colonials. They linked the central walled city with a road on this road a number of public as well as administrative buildings such as Town Hall, Kachehry, the G.O.R, Clubs, were erected. Railway station was built in the Cantt in order to have a link with the center of city for the military purposes.
2.1 Analysis of Spaces: • Walled city of Multan:
The walled city of Multan is located on mound, believed to the formed of debris of buildings demolished during the centuries of its existence and is unto 6-meter-high flour the surrounding Hussain Agahi and circular roads. The walled city is the bearer of a rich heritage in terms of significance number of historic buildings, an important example of Islamic Urbanism which unlike many Islamic cities has to date retained most of its original characteristics. Layout and street pattern Besides a huge number of small openings, the walled city in entered into from six gates four of them still retained this traditional form. The gates are ——Daulat Gate ——Delhi Gate ——Pak Gate ——Haram Gate ——Bohar Gate There are six main routes. These primary or main routes terminate into secondly routes. Important places were carefully planned along the main routes (Masjid Wali Muhammad in the center of Chowk Bazar in a landmark). It seems that the organic growth was also a definite pattern, so that the inner street network proved to be confusing for stranger on the other hand, it presents definite cues to the passerby to orient himself. The curvilinear, narrow meandering street offers an interesting serial vision. With strategically placed lighting niches at every curve. It is told by the elders, houses of Sikhs and Hindus were lit in the night by lamps placed in niches.

Hierarchy of spaces: The street narrows down to a few feet and suddenly up presenting a hierarchy of space. The high skyline casting deep shadows over the street caters to comfortable movement. The junctions of streets are provided with landmarks. Such as a well, large tree or some religious buildings (mostly a mosque). Most of the traffic is pedestrian and also dedicate the character of architecture of walled city. Only the main route (the gates of the city) are wide enough to accommodate the vehicular traffic. These main routed open into squares (chowks) from which originate the secondary streets. From these tertiary streets spring, which open in the Deuhri (Varanda) or in some cases a flights of steps called Uthala, due to the topography of walled city. The squares of open spaces such developed offered the sense of enclosure, facilitate the activity going on. Mandies (markets) and Bazars are strategically placed mostly along the main routes. The occasional spaces and katras (cul-de-sec) acted as a small, intimate communal spaces. The street scape: The street scape presents a multitude of viual scenes in floor wall or roof. The brick street floor has a small raised platform. (Thiarra) adjacent to the man entrances, also offered a side silting space along the route, adding life to the street space, a characteristic of our cultural heritage variety of geometrical pattern offered and visual interest. The raised platform along with the roadside offers social space. Although, the provision of basic amenities of life, like water, electricity etc., have changed the street shape with high tension wire running close to the balconies and street tank lights projecting out. The projections jhrokas, the balconies along with their delicate carvings and beautiful curved wooden doors add the beauty of the facade. Fort: The Multan Fort a military installation, was a landmark of Indian defense and architecture. According to some estimates the original fort was built between 800 to 1000 Bc. It was built near the city of Multan, in Punjab province, on a hillock separated from the city by the Ravi River. The fort was destroyed by British forces during the British occupation of India. Origins of the Multan Fort arc not known. It was built on a detached, rather high mound of earth separated from the city by the bed of an old branch of the Ravi.The walls of the fort were flanked by 30 towers and enclosed numerous houses, mosques and shrines whose beauty was damaged by the guns of Ranjit Singh in 1818. A beautiful panoramic view of Multan city can be had from Damdama, the biggest point of fort. There is no Fort now as it was destroyed by the British Garrison.
2.2. Conclusions: • Characteristics of the Style:
Masolumen is most old structure so that am conclude it first Three ‘story’ with circumambulation gallery a top the first story.Sloping wall often strengthened with corner turrets. A high and pronounced drum surmounted by turrets. Naked brick surface, both from the exterior as well as interior, which is embellished with faience r faience-mosaic. Wood courses or wood framing used within the brick core for the purpose of resilience. The Philosophy of Blue Color: Color was derived from precious stones, lapis lazuli and the day time color of the sky. In the Sassaron Period, blue was a nerved color and was considered the royal color. Courtiers were different shades of blue to show their ranks. Torquoise was used by the nobles of the highest rank in the realm and the next rank was marked by lapis lazuli. The throne of Khusraw- II called ‘Takt-e-Taqdees (Throne of Holiness) was in two shades of blue. Later, in 1000-1100 AD, when islam took roots, blue was prominently used in the expressions of other arts and craft, especially in architecture and pottery. In the 14th and 15th century these arts reached their zenith. This tradition traveled Multan and Sindh areas of Pakistan with the advent of Islam, when many saints came from Iran to settle in the northern parts of Pakistan. These men preferred blue, as is explained, because they saw in it a realm, of emotion and mystic experience, which led them to metaphysi-

Further museum provides us with a keener sensitivity which is the hall mark of civilization. Love of knowledge, virtue and good are the fundamental needs of higher man and the museum act as catalysts in furthering among the populace a higher sense of culture. A part from the historical records of the existence of museum, there is no evidence that the earlier buildings were solely designed to serve the purpose of museums. Mostly palaces, temples and public building were used for housing museums. ——Origin of term museum The English “museum” comes from the Latin word, and is pluralized as “museums”. It is originally from the Ancient Greek Mouse-ion, which denotes a place or temple dedicated to the Muses (the patron divinities in Greek mythology of the arts), and hence a building set apart for study and the arts. ——Purpose of museums A common language that conveys the complex reality of current social and cultural values–ethical, aesthetic, scientific and technological is the key purpose for those in charge of transmitting a message to society, particularly in the field of museology. The purpose of modern museums is to collect, preserve, interpret, and display items of cultural, artistic, or scientific significance for the education of the public. The purpose can also depend on one’s point of view. To a family looking for entertainment on a Sunday afternoon, a trip to a local history museum or large city art museum could be a fun, and enlightening way to spend the day. To city leaders, a healthy museum community can be seen as a gauge of the economic health of a city, and a way to increase the sophistication of its inhabitants. To a museum professional, a museum might be seen as a way to educate the public about the museum’s mission, such as civil rights or environmentalism. Museums are, above all, storehouses of knowledge. ——Change in museum Early museums began as the private collections of wealthy individuals, families or institutions of art and rare or curious natural objects and artifacts. These were often displayed in so-called wonder rooms or cabinets of curiosities.

Chapter No:3 The Museum
Public access to these museums was often possible for the “respectable”, especially to private art collections, but at the whim of the owner and his staff. The first “public” museums were often accessible only by the middle and upper classes. It could be difficult to gain entrance. ——Old Museum: The buildings used as museums had monumental exterior, and dark gloomy palatial and ornamental interior which were in themselves symbol of culture rather then centers of culture, Keventh Hundson in his survey give his views about it. “Many of them are cursed with nineteenth century building which defy even the most ingenious attempts to make them suitable for present day purposes. Those who planned museums four or five generations ago had an instinct for installing the collections, usually of painting, sculpture and antiquities, either in a superannuated palace in a new building designed to look a place. There were magnificent stair cases, vast rooms with high ceilings, and as much marble, carving mural-painting and mosaic as the budget would allow”. It was grant inflexible, expensive and intimidating”. ——New Museum: These characteristics should definitely be avoided in modern museum building which have now more specialized, functional building with changing concepts i.e. which should have a friendlier atmosphere and should be inviting to share their hospitality. The growing demand for more information more communication, more interpretation and more activity. The museum seems to be in the process of transformation itself from a display and conservation center to a cultural center.
3.1 Museum Debate: ——“The classic museum is structured as follows: four walls, light from above, two doors; one for entrance and other for exit”. Now this single line tells us a lot about what a classical museum is supposed to be. It gives us the picture of what is the standard for design a museum. In this case the main focus is on the exhibit housed in those four walls and there is no emphasis on the building itself. This is one of the main change which came with the ‘modern era of museums’. Another way of looking at it would be the minimalist and deconstructive. Museum architecture is an extreme variation of the current trend of creating museums design in close collaboration and dialog with visual arts. ——“S. Baxia” museum architect says: “it will be center for all kind of cultural activities like theatrical performance, lectures, concerts, exhibitions and meetings, and these amenities will have to be provided on large scale than needed only as accessories for museum activities, then she continues”. “the style of the building should be represented of its age should be at least contemporary, if not ultramodern. The interior of the exhibiting galleries as well other related rooms should be architecturally pleasing, but should not be a center of attraction and should be subordinate to the purposes in view. Many people believe that the museum building should imposing, solemn and monumental, this is achieved normally by restoring to the methods of traditional building and adapting archaic style. This should not be al lowed by any contemporary thinkers. Old style was dependent on old methods and material of construction”. ——Professor “Lehmbruck” says “since one cannot forecast what the changes in felling that thinking of the next fifty or so years are going to be, one can only anticipate them but designing highly flexible building. Ideally, the museum building should be nothing more than a shell a shelter, with in which all division, floors stairs and lifts can be easily rearranged as new need arise”. He calls it an “over generalized building”

4.1.1. Conclusion:
Museum spaces must be designed keeping the relation between the display areas and the visitors in mind. Window on the gallery areas should be places in such a way that the light does not affect the display areas. The display areas should have indirect lights for better visibility. Color scheming in the galleries helps a lot therefore the scheming should be properly determined Location of museum is importance as it reflects on the building itself. The building itself has very grand felling, welcoming feeling of grand entrance. The lobby is very pleasing to look at as the dome above it is painted and have multi levels so it provides moment of from floor to roof. The museum generally tends to exhaust the viewer as there is lacking of seating space.

Concept The LokVirsa lacks the uniformity which becomes an important part of a building complex, a uniformity and repetition of elements that set up a language of design. However, in case of LokVirsa the design concept evolves from the diversity in the culture and architecture of Pakistan by using different architectural elements for different buildings. • Crafts shops:
These crafts shops provide the local handmade crafts and promotes the our local cultural. The craft shop provides the opportunity from all over Pakistan artist to exhibit their crafts at this point. • Museum flow:
Use of display techniques create very interesting series of installation of ethology. also the use of path for visitor to full educate the public about history series of time line of we say that creating a story from past to present quit interesting.

• Galleries of museum:
The different galleries show the different color of the culture of the Pakistan. The path way f the museum are very defined and the circulation of the culture is as per sequence. The interior of museum depicts culture and color of Pakistan in a fascinating way. The Galleries of museum exhibits live environment. For exhibition in galleries instead of placing of individual model are incorporated in a group from to exhibit the whole environment.

Heritage library is devoted to provide assistance to scholars, students, common citizen on folklore and cultural heritage by accumulating field research and collecting cultural studies.it houses a large collection of books on anthropology, folk music , culture , arts , crafts and history
4.2.1 Conclusion:
Museum is a single space which represent all region of Pakistani culture and traditional art and craft. but is outside of the museum spaces with fake entrances and multiple door who show only identity of the different Wald cities and culture but people confuse to find the right place like amphitheater and cafeteria, also the outdoor land scape not well planned and space segregation. Lacks diversity in the depiction of architectural styles and crafts. Weak linkages are there between different functions. unplanned open spasce no parking facility within the complex six entrance gates create confusion and pose a security threat. Use of local material and built local depiction of village life amazing sculpture play in outdoor.

4.3. National Museum Saudi Arabia:
Riyadh Museum deigned by Raymond Moriama National Museume Saudi Arabia museum location Riyadh city Museum structure mostly use of stone and r.c.c and create masses and then internal lay ought to build by the partition walls and different kind of blinders. Concept inspired by the form and colors of the sand dunes of the “Red Sands” just outside Riyadh.The west facade along Murabba’ Square resembles the soft contour of a sandune with its layout forming a crescent pointing towards Mecca.The west facade opens into a large lobby, that also opens to a smaller square in the east that separates the main bodies of the museum to the north and south, each arranged around a small internal courtyard. The concept for the didactic design of the exhibitions is somewhat different from the traditional approach of the classic museums. There is less emphasis on individual exhibits displayed out of their cultural context as objects of great value. There are a great many replicas and life size dioramic displays, illustrating and educating about certain points and issues. As such it is sometimes difficult to identify certain specific pieces and even tell replicas from originals. The idea behind this is not to focus on individual pieces in their own right but rather use them as examples to highlight the general ideas or concepts they represent.

fig.4.29 Arab Kingdoms Hall
This is the second hall at the Museum and covers an area of 1500 square meters. The period it covers extends from the fourth millennium BC to the fourth century AD. The exhibits of this period highlight ancient civilizations that arose in the Arabian Peninsula, Arab Kingdoms of the Middle Ages and late Arab Kingdoms. Visitors to the Arab Kingdom Hall can first see a model of the Tayma Wall built with natural stones, which were transferred from the wall itself. The history of the Arab kingdoms is displayed on a screen: Early Arab Kingdoms emerged in the east, north, and northeast of the Arabian Peninsula. On the opposite side of the Tayma Wall, visitors can see a group of stone slabs, four meters in height, which were found at the Khobba site in Tabuk Region. These stone slabs date back to the fourth millennium BC. The hall features a model identifying the history of writing since its beginnings in 3200 BC until the onset of early Arabic script in 1000 BC. The full history of writing is shown on a large screen. The hall features replicas of old panels with different writings and various symbols. Visitors can also see some of the oldest scripts: Thamudic, Dedanit, Lihyanite, Safaitic, Aramaic, Nabatean, and early Islamic writings. The hall also includes recreations of typical cumulus-shaped graves and examples of the tools that accompanied graves. An Assyrian drawing shows the 853 BC «Qarqar» battle between the Arabs and Assyrians, which is one of the most important battles of the ancient world. In the first millennium BC, trade relations between the Near East region, East Africa, South Asia, and the Arabian Peninsula were strengthened. The fact that the Arabian Peninsula was located on a major overland trade route helped in creating a number of flourishing Arab kingdoms such as Edom, Lihyan and Kindah. In the south the Saba›, Qataban, Hadhramaut, Minaean, and Awsan kingdoms were established. Trade and agriculture flourished, generating much wealth and prosperity. Trade commodities included agricultural products, spices, textiles, gold, and frankincense. The hall highlights one of the first civilizations during the early Arab kingdoms era -- known as «Midian» -which was established in the second millennium BC in the northwest of the Arabian Peninsula. Other exhibits date back to the middle Arab kingdoms, between the eighth and fourth centuries BC. The most famous cities at that time depended on trade and agriculture and included Tayma, Dawmat Jandal, Dedan, and Najran. Ancient tools and exhibits such as glassware, gold, rollers, combs, and pottery found in Al-Faw, the first capital of the Kingdom of Kindah, are on display. Artifacts from Madain Saleh and other sites date back to the Nabataean period are on display. Perhaps the most important discovery from the Arab Kingdom period was the uncovering of the ancient multicultural city of Thaj, which was established in the fourth century BC. Excavations discovered some of Thaj›s oldest minted coins, as well as Thaj Golden Treasure -- otherwise known as The Unknown Princess Treasure -- among other treasures and artifacts. The hall includes a lion’s head and its paw made from bronze, both of which date back to the first century BC, and were found in Najran.

The second wing shows old pilgrim routes, featuring road signs, objects left by the pilgrims, and maps illustrating the most important stops along the old Levant, Egyptian and Yemeni pilgrim routes. The third wing covers the history of the Kaaba and the Grand Mosque, including the second expansion in the era of King Fahd (may Allah have mercy on him). The forth wing focuses on the city of the Prophet -- peace be upon him -- with a model of Madinah after it was expanded by King Fahd (may Allah have mercy on him). The display includes writing instruments used in teaching writing and reading. The fifth wing features Hajj rituals through centuries, including the first and second Saudi states. In particular, the display also reviews efforts undertaken by King Abdul-Aziz and his sons in the service of the Two Holy Mosques, and the pilgrims.
4.3.1.Conclusion:
Use of masses and concept from context the architect create great design. Some of the spaces double heighted due to live size installation and some of spaces and divide in 2 level and have small tool and craft display. Segregate the galleries according to the eras and show their culture heritage through there remains and some of antiques. Create a journey from entrance to exit a continues journey of display create interest for the visitor. Use of multiple emergency exit and multiple staircase for upper level did not create congestion, also the size of galleries give the broad field of view to eyes. Excluded vip entrance and space of temporary exhibiting and separate administration also the part of good design of the Riyadh museum. Use of thick walls and cavity in front of windows give the comfortable temperature to the internal environment.

4.4. National Museum of Bahrain:
krohn & Hartvig design Museum of Bahrain for the collection of archology , ethnology, and fin art Museum reflect Bahrain extensive history and the museum also houses facilities for storage, research and conservation together with visitors facilities such as a lecture room, work shop and cafeteria.Bahrain, situated between such major cultures as Mesopotamia and India, was an important trade Centre. This historic role produced a unique cultural heritage spanning 6000 years, evidenced by the richness of physician remains uncovered recently by international teams of archaeologists. In 1982, the Government of Bahrain decided to replace the existing, inadequate display facilities with a new, purpose built museum. The museum and its associated administration and research buildings constitute the first stage of a larger civic Centre development which, when complete, will include facilities for conferences and temporary exhibitions, a central library, a planetarium and an aquarium. The museum’s design reflects high international standards in contemporary building - and also honors Islamic architectural traditions. The Arabic preference for geometry and the integration of geometric spatial forms is evident in almost all Islamic architecture; it is rooted in Islam, a religion that to a certain extent has determined the expression of the buildings. The foyer, which connects the four cubic exhibition blocks, is the museum’s central area and from here there is access to all public facilities including the educational sections, a cafeteria at the eastern end and an art gallery at the western end.

The entire building scheme is within a square form with the edges drawn up by a peripheral concrete wall on the land side and a sea wall facing the Arabian Gulf. An artificial lagoon has been created to ensure a constant water level independent of tidal variations. The geometric framework is also evident in the use of various diagonally placed square elements of which the central arcade functions not only as a pivotal point but also as a distribution areal, giving access to various parts of the building complex. The main entrance, formed as a symbolic pattern set against a wall of travertine, leads directly into the foyer. The primary access between the four exhibition cubes, which in fact are small independent museums, is indicated by light of varying intensity.

5.1. Light as a Design Determinant
——Introduction The sun has been man’s primary source of illumination. It reliably provided an abundance of light average of 12 hours per day. The other 12 hours were marked by darkness, which could merely be displaced by fire. Man’s other source of illumination. As fire could not provide enough illumination to perform visual intensive task, man, being a visually oriented creature, was forced to conduct the majority of his activities when daylight was present. Therefore, man learned to adapt his built environment to effectively utilize daylight. During the late nineteenth century, Man discovered that running an electric current through media such as tungsten or mercury could produce light. As he gradually improved this new form of artificial illumination, he began to celebrate his dominance over darkness as he had with other forces of nature. With an abundance of artificial illumination at his control, man began to disregard the day lighting strategies employed by his predecessors. Eventually, man realized that there were shortcomings too heavily on artificial illumination. First, it consumed large amounts of energy. This became increasingly important as he realized that the resources on the planet were finite and that he damaged nature every time he worked to become independent from its forces. Not only did his lamps consume energy as they produced light, but they also produced roughly twice the heat per foot-candle than daylight. Man also realized that, despite his efforts, electrically illuminated spaces were not as comfortable as those illuminated with day lighting rendered colors better, creating lively, vibrant spaces. It also varied throughout the day, due to the sun’s movement and atmospheric conditions. This caused the mood of the spaces to change with the passing of time and the ever changing weather, keeping man in tune with the outside world. Electrically lit spaces were sterile and uncomfortable in comparison. ——Aims & Objectives: This research has two objectives: 1. To understand the subject 2. To make it an educational experience • The Objective 1:
To understand the development of architectural design through the qualitative and quantitative analysis of light. Here are two basic questions with which I start my research: 1) How can architecture design enhance the functionality of space through the manipulation of natural light? 2) How can the poetic nature of space be influenced by the manipulation of natural light? ——Natural light can be manipulated in order to support the functionality and poetry of space. In the world in which we live in today, most buildings use sunlight in a basic and uninspired way. Allowing natural light into a building typically deals more with pattern making on the exteriors of the building rather than considering the ways in which the natural light can influence both the functionality and poetry of the building. Functionally, light can be utilized to illuminate tasks, as well as create order and aid in user understanding of space. Poetically, light can affect the overall atmosphere of space, as in creating awe or mystery.

——How does light move through space? There is a natural progression in the manipulation of light in space. The progression begins with the sun. Light emitted from the sun passes through space, crosses through the earth’s atmosphere, and strikes the earth’s surface. In order to affect the interior quality of the space, designers create some type of openings in the building envelope to allow the light to penetrate into the space. Many designers stop at this point, only creating openings to allow random light to enter their spaces. There are two important steps which follow that are necessary if light is to both support the functionality and create a poetic response in the space. As I have defined it, the quantitative aspects of the light deal with the question how. In this arena, designers must question how light moves through the space, how the geometry of the space affects light. When looking at qualitative aspects, designers focus on the question why. Here designers may ask questions as to why this amount of light enters the space, why this light is appropriate for the space, why this lighting strategy is better for the space than other potential lighting strategies. Through the consideration of how and why, designers can create a cyclical process that can improve the overall design. First, designers create an opening; next they question how the light comes in through this opening; finally, they question why this lighting strategy is or is not appropriate for both the function and the poetry of the space. After completing this process, designers can then return to the stage of creating an opening to further manipulate the opening to fit the desired effects more appropriately. Again, the analysis of quantitative and qualitative behaviors follows to deem the appropriateness of the new opening. ——How does the designed form affect light? While the pattern of natural light produced by the sun has a very specific path that it follows, once the light penetrates into a designed form, that form plays a dramatic part in the specific lighting qualities of the enclosed space. The geometric form of the space has the ability to reflect, blend, or diffuse the light. The material type, texture of the material, and material color affect the ability of the form to reflect, bend, or diffuse the light. In each of these ways, the design of a particular space plays a key role in creating the lighting quality of the space. ——How can light affect the creation of the designed form? The natural path of the sun creates a simple logic to the designed of the space. By focusing on how the sun moves through the sky, a designer can manipulate space to take advantage of the sun. Forms textures, materials, and colors can be manipulated to take optimal advantage of the changing light from the sun to further manipulate the opening, to fit the desired effects more appropriately. Again, the analyses of quantitative and qualitative behavior follow to deem the appropriateness of the new opening. • The Objective 2:
Creating an educational response to the environment of day light as design determinant. The idea is to create a building that is responsive to the environment. The main focus is to determine how day lighting can influence spaces and form. The idea is then to express these findings into a tangible concept that can show how the building can be a teaching tool for its users. ——Mechanics There are two components to daylight, beam light and sky vault light. Generally, light from the north and south is desirable because it is relatively glare free. The sun is closest to the horizon in the east and west, meaning that it can become a source of glare in the morning and evening. ——Strategies There are a few simple strategies that can be employed to maximize the benefits of natural illumination while minimizing its negative impacts. Elongating a building on the east-west axis maximizes access to glare free south and north light while minimizing low angle east and west light. Many indigenous cultures such as the ancient Greeks and Pueblo Indians followed this pattern for development. Light shelves function by reflecting light through the upper portions of an aperture while shading the lower
46

Chapter No:5 Design Consideration
portion. This lowers the level of illumination towards the front of a room while maintaining the level of illumination towards the back of a room, resulting in uniform distribution. This uniform distribution creates the perception of increased levels of illumination. Vertical louvers can be utilized to shade apertures against low-angle east and west light. Vertical louvers were used by many late modem architects. Separation of apertures into portions for illumination and portions for view results in a good distribution of light, while limiting visual access where privacy is a concern. Day lighting Techniques and Principles: Basic Principles: The sources I have read all suggest that optimal day lighting is achieved by certain basic principles. The first is that the building should be oriented in an east-west axis to allow the spaces to receive southern and northern light. The next stated that in order for daylight to penetrate deep in the space that a narrow floor plate is suggested. One story buildings are also suggested for optimal conditions to penetrate all spaces. Additional features are recommended in order to create a uniform distribution of the light, to reduce glare, to reflect light deeper in the space and for user control. • Lighting:
Over and above the psychological aspect, we shall consider light from the psychological point of view. Object and architecture ‘live’ on light, which Picasso described as ‘a measuring instrument in a word of forms’. In a museum, light must performs a double function, since it must serve for the interpretation of both the object and the surrounding space. If either one of these tasks is not fulfilled, unity from the point of view of Gestalt psychology is lost. The ganger lies in partially solving one of the two problems, as well as possible, but without taking the whole into account. Light is capable of sending out a large number of ‘message’ whose effect may be to guide, inform, separate or bring together, hide or reveal, enlarge or reduce, produce gladness or sorrow. Whilst it is fairly easy to determine how the object should be lighted ideally so as to be psychologically satisfying, this problem raises the greatest difficulties with the regard to architecture. The constancy law apples here too, that is to say the human capacity to see thing (in the light) as they are known to be and not as they appear in reality; thus, a sharp variation in the intensity of light produces either a sudden change of direction or an abrupt deepening. If the light is unskillfully deployed, the interpretation of space may be distorted since, according the constancy rule an impression of depth is associated with each degree of luminosity. The (psychological) evaluation of the luminosity of a space results from adaption and contrast. The light should be evenly distributed, so that the museum space can be perceived as a whole. Diffused lighting reduces attention, whereas locally directed lighting increases the force of attraction. One must of course be careful not to overdo it, for the repetition of a striking theatrical effect is tiring. Indeed the museum is very place where accents must be discreetly placed. The manipulation of light should not distort the truth of the original. Similarly, color should not be altered by the use of tinted glass, reflective surface, etc. ——Modern Developments: Present day designs for galleries and museums are based on four main conceptions; the need to see exhibits clearly favorable in surroundings of moderate brightness free from glare; the need to protect them from harmful radiation, the possibility of using artificial to supplement day light, and the need to bring out the individual qualities of the exhibits by the modern methods of display. Lighting system: • Side windows:
Side windows are divided to low windows and high windows (clerestory). Traditional side windows light mostly the area closest to the windows and the rest of the room is less lit, or even dim when the room is deep. The light is distributed depending on the sky conditions. • Clerestory system:
A clerestory is also a side window but one that is placed high in the wall. It is usually contained in a part of the building that rises clear of the roof. Generally, it doesn’t provide views towards the exterior but permits

a deeper penetration of daylight into the room. ——Combined side-systems: that include a side window and a clerestory provide a more balanced distribution of daylight than does a typical side window or a clerestory window alone. Since daylight levels are additive, we can combine the daylight distribution from the side window with that from a clerestory window • Light shelf system:
A lightshelf is a device designed to capture daylight, particularly sunlight, and redirect it towards the back of the room by reflecting it off the ceiling. lower part that mainly serves the role of providing a view and an upper window that serves to redirect the daylight towards the back of the room away from the window plane. ——Variable area light shelf system: A variation of the static lightshelf system, the variable area lightshelf is designed to be a dynamic system whereby the position of the lightshelf moves to optimize sunlight penetration according to time of day or season A highly reflective film moves between two positions to optimize reflection inside the space. This system can be automated for higher efficiency • Prismatic systems:
to change the direction of incoming sunlight and redirect it by way of refraction and reflection. As a ray of light hits the prism, its direction is changed. Part of the light is then directed towards the ceiling to be later reflected, while the other part comes inside the room directly. • Top lighting Systems:
The central courtyards or atria of the Roman house, these were open to the sky and rain; and despite providing daylight to the surrounding dwelling space, would not have modified the exterior climate in the manner of a roof light. ——Skylight system: The simplest toplighting strategies. It usually provides a horizontal or slanted opening in the roof of a building and is designed to capture sunlight when the sun is high in the sky. • Roof monitor and saw-tooth systems:
Saw-tooth systems are toplighting strategies that differ primarily in their shapes. Under these systems, light is captured through vertical or sloped openings in the roof. To capture sunlight at certain times of the day or of the year, depending on the requirements of the building. Roof monitors can be single-sided or two-side ——Light pipe system: Toplighting strategy designed to bring daylight into the lower floors of a multi-story building. The typical components of a light pipe system are a solar collector that gathers sunlight, a concentrator that focuses solar energy onto a smaller area, a transport system, and a distribution system. simple stationary mirror or a sophisticated computerized heliodor that tracks the sun’s movement. • Atrium and glazing:
Atrium started as the central court of a roman house, admitting light and air to the surrounding space. The atrium allows the daylight into central areas, modern atriums are most commonly covered by a glazed skylight that monitors the light that reaches the inside while keeping out the rain and reducing the need of air-conditioning. Atrium has many advantages: it gets daylight into deep plans, giving a sense of orientation, information of time, weather and keeping the occupants connected with the outside of the building. Also, atria save energy by helping the ventilation and admitting daylight.

artificial light. The principal requirement is to create optimum conditions for viewing objects; this does not only include the lighting of the object but also general conditions of visual comfort.Lighting for pictorial display should not come from an angle less than 45 degrees, but the source should be screened against glare.
Conclusion:
The use of daylight is very vital to a design of any good museum: Use natural daylight to light the museum as much as possible and rely as least as possible on artificial lightingDisplay and exhibition galleries in museum need special design as far as light levels are concerned. A combination of artificial light and daylight, controlled by a variety of methods can provide the appropriate flexibility, to meet the needs of the objects and the visitors.

Creating an educational response to the environment of day light as a design determinant can be made possible by allowing maximum natural light to penetrate the building fabric into the interior space which can enhance the productivity of a space both in terms of its, functional use and the experience of light- meaning to respect the quantitative and qualitative use of the light. Creative articulation of space and structure can manipulate the quality of light. Dramatic contrasts of light and shadow can define the space usage. Building material could be explored for the effect of light required. Dynamics of light and utility of task to operate accordingly, could be experimented, this could increase its educational value. Form of the structure using effective natural lighting in it self can make a positive statement towards use of daylight.

5.2. Visualization and Depiction of Space in Architecture
“Space: that which is not looked at through a keyhole, not through an open does not exist for the eye only; it is not a picture: one wants to door. Space live in it.” El Lissitzky ——Introduction: Architecture is concerned with the physical articulation of space; other disciplines such as painting and sculpture are equally involved with spatial organization but in different terms. Architects must acquire the skill to specialize and scope with the spatial variables of light, surface, shape and form. Unfortunately, we conceive of such spaces merely as a graphic language of design rather than the experiential understanding of space. ——Aims & Objectives: Here the aim is to understand the nature of space supported by a variety of physical and nonphysical spatial concept. • Sensation of space
Architecture can be considered as a creative expression of the co-existence of space and form on a human scale but its understanding, together with all other concepts, is rooted in the psychological space of our thoughts. Hence, space has become more dynamic and ‘tangible’. Here we attempt to understand the mechanics of perception in order to grasp the understanding of space. ——Architecture as space Our perceived experience of interior and exterior architectural space is primarily a sensual event involving movement. To pass through an environment is to cause a kaleidoscope of transitions between one spatial impression and another. Each experience affects the orchestrated functioning of our senses in a variety of ways — our eyes, ears, nose and skin registering changing stimuli which trigger a flood of brain responses on all levels. For example, imagine walking through a fun fair just by imagining we can remember the colors, the amplified volumes, the shrills the cries, the smell of popcorn, the textures, the exotic mechanics, etc. now imagine a hospital we can feel the muscles tensing, the quite, the somber colors, the cold air, the strong smell of antiseptics, etc. how contrasting are the two images and how it builds up to our experience. Each experience is modified by the prevailing conditions under which it is perceived, be it a midday, light or dusk, the degree of lightness or darkness influencing our perception of spaciousness. Hence architectural space is subjected to a whole series of perceptual overlays. ——Perceptual space As we move through space each body, head and eye movement sets the visual environment in motion. The eyes receive spatial information the eye cannot focus on more than one very small point at any one time. Visual data outside the focused center becomes progressively less determinate as it ranges out to the blurred outer reaches of our peripheral vision.This visual scanning process is capable of monitoring up to 30 separate images every second. This visual scanning process is an issue oriented operation, and so people with quite separate motives and interest will view the same scene in quite different ways. Despite the importance of vision, we should never ignore the involvement of the other distance receptors; hearing in relation to the acoustic properties of space, and smell in aiding identification and orientation the immediate receptors (skin, membranes and muscles) being more subtle in their sensitivity to the ambient temperature, humidity, texture and shape. Most of all, we can never be free from tactile sensation for we have always the pressure of our bodies on the surface which supports it. The combination of these varied sensory inputs reinforces, elaborates and may even after our visual perception of the environment to give us a complete image which, informs, can be modified by our own personality and motives. As designers, our articulation of space could be far richer if we become only slightly more aware of the tactile sense. ——Multi-sensory Space Design also accentuates the kinesthetic aspect of our tactile appreciation of space, space primarily per-

ceived through the skin and muscles and in response to our position within or movement through it. Our bodily contact with the edges of space is central to our awareness of ourselves and our spatial location. However, in Shibuya, a bustling shopping district of Tokyo, stands one art gallery in the world where visitors are positively encouraged to experience sculpture using the sense of touch This is the Gallery Tom- a touch-me art museum and performance space designed for a hands-on appreciation of sculpture for the blind and partially sighted. Housed in a shell of crusty reinforced concrete, Gallery Tom is a further example of an architecture sensitive to our experience of temperature, texture and acoustics. The shape of the first floor performance space and gallery is defined by a constantly changing floorscape: from cushioned tatami to polished cedar wood. Echoing the dual symmetries of the plan’s footprint a diagonally sliced rectangle this variegated underfoot experience has two functions it helps locate dancers and singers when used as a performance space and, when used as a gallery, heralds the position of freestanding sculptures to visitors. The upper floor provides a smaller, quieter gallery. Above this the castellated roof is pierced by a row of diagonal strips of clerestory ceiling lights. These create shafts of alternating cool and warm air which are sensed kinesthetically when visitors move about the space In describing Gallery Tom its architect, Hiroshi Naito, acknowledges that although visual sensation provides more information to the brain than do the other senses, a vast amount of knowledge is required to comprehend the substance of our setting. To be visually appreciated, architecture has traditionally been covered with various materials to adorn its surface but, in the non-visual world, this effect is completely lost. This is because the eyes of the blind are always attuned to the world we cannot see: ‘They experience the building by the number of steps, by feeling the light on their skin, they touch the volume of space by sound. ——Perceptual-Psychological Space We place self-imposed limits on our location and movement through space by decisions made within socioeconomic frameworks; decisions which dictate the location of our home, workplace and mode of travel, with additional factors such as length of residence influencing our perception of the urban environment. Such influences produce various forms of perceptual screening in different kinds of space. For instance, in Name of Architect Hiroshi Naito

a cathedral people will tend to move more slowly and speak only in whispers. In an overcrowded elevator an individual’s perception of that space will be altered -just as a person experiencing a visually pleasant and thermally comfortable room ‘sees’ the space in a totally different fashion from someone occupying the same room with the heating increased to levels of discomfort. Kenneth Bayes has described two kinds of movements through space: ‘one exploratory through an unknown environment; the other habitual through a known environment. In the first (called ‘tourist’) the architecture is new, prominent and strange; one is exploring, open and receptive, moving and experiencing new things, investigating. In the second (called ‘habitué’) the architecture is in the background, hardly noticed; one moves through it without the awareness of the sur-

world of space defined by buildings and boxes characterized by straight lines and right angled corners. Even the room-space you now occupy will be created from planes, objects and openings derived from squares
fig.5.31 Plan Facing exterior elevation top and section above the gallery tom and rectangles which have been transferred directly from the designer’s drawing-board. An overexposure to this kind of environment has meant that our vision, being continually bombarded with rectilinear information, has, in a subtle way, developed a highly conditioned and specialized perception. A by-product of this conditioning is that our visual perception can be distorted to experience optical illusions. For example, in Survey a group of young design students were asked to describe the plan of the roof above a ramped corridor. The majority believed that they were perceiving a parallel rectangle when, in fact, the plan was tapered. Such optical distortions are common in our perception of the modern environment, such as the apparent upward thickening of tall apartment blocks and, in two dimensions, our inability to read certain shapes as being flat. As a means of broadening our perceptual awareness it is, therefore, important that we immerse ourselves consciously in spatial diversity, for our visual conditioning not only influences the formation, externalization and development of ideas but predetermines the nature of a resulting architecture, which in turn conditions the perception of those who inhabit it. ——Conceptual Space As opposed to the psychological dimension of behavioral space and the tactility and measurability of physical space, conceptual space is that which we perceive and visualize. The design of space is, initially, a mental concept and any resultant response is primarily experienced through visual perception. By fixing our vision on the central vase image as object we can apprehend the traditional conception of form in space where the contours defining the vase represent form-orientated thinking; the vase symbolizes an architecture of con tainment. However, if we psychologically switch off to a concentration on the outer areas (the two face profiles) we discover that the surrounding negative transforms into a positive but different entity which not only reflects the nature of the vase but takes on a life and meaning of its own. In our new perception, what was at first void has now become tangible - the vase to faces alternation causes a graphic experience the concept of space as a dynamic presence being redefined by the same contours which had previously described the vase. In returning to our analogy with architecture, we can begin to understand a positive concept of environmental space in which the space between buildings is just as potent as the space they contain. ——Conclusions: Leonardo da Vinci devised series of games for his junior draftsmen in order to develop their visual accuracy. For example, in order to develop visual accuracy in judging dimensions, he proposed that a line be drawn on

a wall and, standing approximately nine meters away, his students attempted to judge its length by cutting a straw- the one who cut his or her straw nearest the actual length won the game.

5.3. Major issues:
——Random layout: Display is an important function of a museum and can be designed in a variety of way. In a traditional museum display is an often in a series of galleries of room. Arranged in a random sequence. The objects and pictures may have been acquired in a piece meal way in a accommodated where ever space was available. in a particular large exhibits had go to where they fit .In addition the visitor can come confuse on entering if there is a plethora of sign posts and notices which have been put up at different times. A unified system of guidance should be considered at the planning stage. ——Layout with introductory gallery: An alternative is to be led the visitor from the entrance to an introductory gallery which may contain a display summarizing the themes and subject of the museum. If this eye is taken by one particular subject he is immediately directed to a side gallery which may treats this subject in greater depth. The same principal can be extended in further large museums. ——Arrangement within galleries: the two main circulations patterns sequential circulation is appropriate for a chorological arrangements or where there is a story line that need to be follow from start to finish. The other random pattern is suitable for subjects where browsing at random is called for.

——Disabled access: Where the display route involves the level by steps or other difficulties where wheelchair users lifts or rams should be provided as in other public.
5.4 Display details: • Exhibition:
In Museum’s objects can be displayed. -In show Cases. -Freestanding on the floor, on plinths or supports. -on walls. -on panels. In art galleries, pictures are displayed on walls and panels, but can also be shown on easels. The two major aspects of display are the case of viewing and the lighting. ——Types of Exhibits: They can be divided as follows: Static exhibits: These are historic exhibits, reproduction of original objects. Active exhibits: They are the exhibits which are static till a visitor activates them into producing sound and motion. Working models are the best examples. Interactive exhibits: They are the most advanced and allow the visitor to activate and give them a multiple choice of options and then give various results. The visitor can accommodate with exhibits. These exhibits allow the visitors to experiment. ——Exhibit techniques in museum: 1-Object Display: 2-Panels Display 3-Model Display 4-Holograms 5-Simulation 6-Audiovisuals ——Classification of exhibits: 1-Permanent exhibits 2-Temporary exhibits The permanent exhibits undergo periodical change from 5-10 years. The changes are minimal but they have permanent effects and goals to achieve. The temporary exhibits, the museum organizes the exhibition for a limited period and for a specific cause. They are two spaces internal and external. ——Mode of display: The idea of exhibits considerably changed during years rather than awesome display of exhibits with “do not touch” restriction, the display has formed a team of inactive, active and interactive types. The worLbhop concept (active/interactive) encourages public participation through visual demonstration and the filmshows and lectures are more encouraging and entertaining. • Measurement:
The approximate eyelevel and the levels of comfortable visibility are given in the figures with little eye movement people usually see and recognize the things which are within an approximately, elliptical come of vision with apex at the cone at eyeball height.

Studies have shown that in general the adults absorb an area only about one foot above his own eye level to 3 feet below it at an average distance of 24”-48” arraying objects above or below these limits, places a strain on seldom used muscles and produces aching backs, tired feet, burning eyes and stiff necks some large objects such as to temples or dinosaurs will inevitably saw above these viewing limits. The visitors must be permitted space to back away from the object to comprehend it. Certain general relationships between spaces and such preferred organizations on plan and selection may increase the possible museum user in other words some building forms, but never only one make museum installation easier than others, principally these performances concern the movement of the visitors. ——Vision and viewing: The normal limit of vision without moving the head is a cone of 40, therefore, can only be comfortable viewed as a whole form a distance of about double that diagonal. It is generally accepted, though, that a distance equal to the diagonal will enable the viewer to appreciates the details, of the picture, but he will need to more his head to compass it all. ——Conclusion: Exhibits presentation through various media is a very important aspect in an aerospace museum which can effectively attract and behold the visitors. Only one type of presentation technique can make a visitor bore and he might lose his interest, so a combination should be designed for the presentation of different types of exhibits. The different types of medium presented in a gallery greatly influence the design and planning of a gallery, so the designing principles should be kept in mind while designing galleries. eye level man:5’4” woman:4’11” 7’ 6’-3” 3’-5” 2’ 2’-4”

Human and Cultural: The majority of Multan’s residents speak Saraiki, while Haryanvi is the second most spoken language. A good portion of the people are conversant in Urdu. English is understood by the educated. The majority of the people are Muslims. However, the city does have a significant Sikh and Hindu communities within the district. Multan is generally known as the ‘City of Saints, Sufis and Beggars’. The city is one of the main cities in Southern Punjab province of Pakistan. The city has been the focal point in many religions especially becoming a central abode for Sufism, the mystical side of Islam. The city has attracted Sufi saints from far places of the globe.
Cultural Expression Multan Saraiki: 66.58% (54.23% in the city) Haryanvi: 14.59% (11.01% in the city) Punjabi: 11.14% (09.13% in the city) Urdu: 5.86% (6.64% in the city) Pashto: 0.62% Balochi: 0.10% Sindhi: 0.07% Other: 1.04%

Conclusion:
Architecture Approach to maintain the environmental control. • Mashrabiah
Shading is a necessary strategy to avoid heat in the building during summer. Various shading devices have been used in the region for centuries. Mashrabiah is a wooden screen for covering the window has been used to provide shading and provides occupants with shading at the same time as natural lighting, ventilation, access to outside view and privacy. • Wind Catchers
wind towers have been used to provide natural ventilation and passive cooling by catching the air at its highest elevation and transferring it into internal spaces of the building • Crossed Ventilation
It is a ventilation system of a space or a run of associated spaces, through openings placed on two opposite walls. • Chimney Effect
It is a system that makes an air extraction by placing apertures in the top of a room. They can be connected to an exhaust vertical duct. The stack effect is also referred to as the “chimney effect”, and it helps drive natural ventilation and infiltration. • Wind Tower
Through a wind tower which takes the wind at certain height above the roof, where it is most intense. The air is carried by a tube that can be introduced by the lower part of the premises and even it can incorporate air treatment devices.

Chapter No:8 DESIGN CONCEPT: Client BRIEF:
The Museum Complex is the Project of Antiquities Organization Department of Archaeology and Museum which is responsible to look after country’s region Rich culture Heritage and hope to offer a maximum facility to the Museum complex, which will act as culture center. The government has given the rest of the Ghanta Ghar area to the antiquity organization latterly. So they suggested a Museum Complex in the hole area with top priority to Museum a new building to be acratic soon and developed the site in such a way that it will remain as important Historical place without demolishing certain important building which has been rest orated. The site is located on the heart of the city which form a part of the center of the city integrated with the walled city and the recent one nearby Fort kohana beside a commercial offices of Govt. building, library area at the back and public parking at the side and back. The calculation of requirements is to be carried out and detailed by the architect and archology team to come up with final set of requirement. Since the acquisition and selection of exhibits for the Museum is almost their so basis can be formed in this stage .So probably a fixed dimensions will be chosen for the hall with provision of flexibility and future extension to accumulate most of the exhibits in a suitable manner. The client also demands a proper integration of all the buildings in the Museum Complex. The Museum perceived as National symbol of creative genius and culture attainment of the people of Multan. The building should be a prominent place in the heart of the historical fort and reflect old generation identity. The Project Glimpses Complex Multan has assigned to the student Mr.Ghulam Mustafa Joyia to promote the history of the region. His work is the result of thoughtful search. He has considered all the aspects related to the project, (like climate, sun orientation, form, function, services, cost etc.). In his proposed design, the form of the building itself shows the Modren style of the Multan. The functions of the proposed buildings Museum, art galleries, library) are directly related to the Education. They are much effective to exhibit it and locally made handicrafts on national and international level.

The Main entrance: The main entrance with symbolic pattern sets as the most dominant portion of the museum with traditional touch in term of faced treatment located along the diagonal axis of the square. It is flanked by two massive vertical wall like in order to break the massive feeling. wall for easily accessible to public visitors. The interior of the museum: Organized in to three areas the entrance lobby sequence to core exhibition sequence to permanent exhibition and open display in the same axis. While education and research section and administration at the left side block and temporary exhibition at the top block connected together by triangular corridor. The Education Centre and Administration: Library and research section and administration are design to be approach directly without interfering the museum activities and arranged according to grid system of interval circulation all the spaces looking at small intimate court yard. This schematic reflect the restricted character of the administration and education section and very carefully linked with other museum sections. Temporary exhibition: Has been designed to be approach vertical from the entrance lobby from the main foyer. Arranged to serve the multipurpose display exhibitions with multi-level and provision of natural lighting . Core Exhibition: As it has a permanent restricted display exhibits by clients as large sculpture pieces so it has been design with direct approach from main foyer as first permanent display. Exhibition galleries: Exhibition halls start from ground floor are situated in multiple levels storied element with promising of control day light access and having the galleries in different level connected through very fine ramps which keep the museum a live and vital. While the thematic galleries at the sub sequent floor are of one level in order to reduce the fatigue factors and have been enhanced by the void areas around the circulation area.
8.2 Technical aspect: • Material:
Has been chosen very carefully with according to function climate, durability and viability. Flexibility The interior of museum allows maximum flexibility in term of large gallery and open planning system which conceived of any number of exhibition being put into large space. Museum building cast in basic concrete structure column beam and the inner shell is also made of concrete and the outer skin build with the Spidersilk and fibber glass the composite material and some where use of carbon fibber to enhance the strength of over all structure. • Security:
As such building need a special intensive care in planning and installation for security against theft fair and security of visitors and staff. ——a) Considering in planning Try to separate the reception area and common facilities which can be utilized in un-working hour of museum from the permanent exhibition area with central entrance. Also locating open display area inside the thematic galleries masses in closed from all side. I always try to minimized number of opening in the building and illuminate them in the galleries. Selection of R.C.C, as basic structure member and carefully fair resistance finishes. ——b) Installation Along with normal system of security the electronic system video camera and connection with police and firefighting system.

• Lighting:
The most talented factor which have been considered to develop such space for people to enjoy with natural light and well controlled by having a diffuse north light louver for adjustment in order to develop a sense of present in the space at different time of the day. While for artificial light a special type of light as required and calculated by specialist and how to comping both of them at certain condition which become an essential element. • Relaxation area:
Proposed a relaxation area after three galleries in order to reduce the fatigue and poorness by mean of seating arrangement and different mod of views audio visual media and open space. Ventilation: • Natural ventilation:
Due to the great change of temperature between day and night, inside and outside temperature in Multan. In day time: The stack effect produces positive outside pressure and flow in a word at lower pressure while at night we discourage ventilation as weather is cool. • Mechanical ventilation:
In certain places and conditions we require a mechanical ventilation by installation of exhaust fans and air circulations which distribute and suck air to achieve the desire result bringing temperature and humidity to working area. Wall and faced treatment: No to forgot the traditional pattern a consideration of faced treatment and enrichment decoration aspect in Multan. A proposal of large surface areas that should be subject to an artistic treatment and reflect the Multani preference for geometry in order to break the massive feeling of the wall. Also use of Jali “skin” in the exterior in symbolic form and interior as a cooler as used in our tradition rapidly. The use of sky height and as traditional symbolic of region.
