Abstract “Movement in architecture” is an organized system of various types of movements stimulated by specific architectural elements. So far, most of the related studies have focused on a few aspects of movement. In this article, the author tries not only to address circulation in architecture and visual movements but also the physiological psychology of motion, pictorial representation, and natural factors. The physical movement of built form and space is also considered more coherently and comprehensively, along with all stimulus factors and elements. Subsequently, this research correlates various types of movements along with their generator factors and architectural elements.

Introduction A well-designed space must also be versatile yet appropriate for its primary use. “Good designs are where it is not dictated to the individual how they should perceive, operate or feel in the building, but have the flexibility to explore and experience it for themselves,” - Dr Marialena Nikolopoulou, school of architecture at the University of Kent. The impact architecture has on a person’s mood is vast. Arguably these are the fundamentals of architecture: not how it looks, but how we feel it, through the way it allows us to act, behave, think and reflect. Essentially, the power a building has over a person is limited. It cannot change their personal needs or circumstances, and its uses are always changing. However, by the use of architectural elements, one can direct the users to experience the built form in various ways. So one dislocates and locates. One removes known obstacles and introduces new ones. By doing that, one changes the movement, and by changing the movement, one changes the perception of the Space. Architecture started as a means of protection, a shelter from our surrounding environment. It gradually evolved into an art form by introducing subjectivity, creativity, and beauty. Today, we see architecture evolve yet again, this time from an art form to a subject of psychological study and purposeful implementation focused on psychological wellbeing.
Circulation in architecture refers to the way people move throughout a building, and how they interact with the physical space around them. While people by nature ultimately decide which way they chose to go, their behaviour can and often is, determined by the form and layout of the spaces within a building. In recent years architecture has neglected the body movement and its relation to Space. Architectural and body expressions have been standardised, although architecture designs for the body do not take into account its movement and interaction with Space. ‘Movement’ in Architecture can mean different things, and the idea of ‘expressed movement’ has, alone, been variously conceived. ‘Contained movement’, where it is not the architecture that is thought of as moving, but the eye, mind, imagined body or forces; and ‘represented movement’, where there is an implication or illusion that the architecture is in motion. Buildings, by their very nature, tend to be static, a condition hitherto reinforced by their architecture. A strand of contemporary architecture is gradually emerging from this tyranny of form. Based on geometry that goes beyond that of rectilinear relationships, it exploits the visual dynamism of forms that evoke movement.

We live in an age of high mobility brought about principally by the development of transport and communications. Besides the static condition of buildings, the rest of the built environment revolves around a proliferation of various means of enabling movement. In this sense, we are, compared to previous eras, hyper-mobile and, as a constant movement has become increasingly possible, so the appetite for change has enlarged. The pleasing visual quality of these spatial curves or proportions is derived from their natural order. The fluidity of curves is essential, and this sense of movement is enhanced by a seamless transition in the geometry that sets them out. This may be a vision of how people will move around the building or may take account of more psychological aspects, the visualization of the lines of force, the axiality of some particular arrangement, or the mere feeling of being pulled along or guided by the spaces of the structure. Lines of force exist in mind as well as in the spaces or landscape that we create, contributing to a sense of spirituality; they are the result of how spaces or objects in Space relate to each other to create a higher power. Although these spaces or objects may be static, they prescribe a geometry that implies movement.
Moreover, the spaces and objects which possess the power to generate lines of force often have a strong presence themselves usually traceable to their geometry. One should not only look in the mind when considering perceptions of movement in the static reality of built forms because other factors can bring buildings to life. People inhabit the way spaces, whether singly or in crowds, is crucial, but architecture would be virtually nothing if it were not for light, ever-changing. Today it is difficult to stand still; uncertainties exist everywhere, and technology is shrinking the world. Aware of this, architecture attempts to serve a demand for excitement and interest, and there is a confidence about an architecture which not only asserts itself by appealing to man’s appreciation of movement but which also explores new geometries and forms. Buildings too are more liberated by what can be conceived, realized and manufactured economically while at the same time becoming ever more responsive to our senses. Can you recollect times when circulation in built and unbuilt spaces affected your behaviourism?

Concern/ interest Architecture defines where we are, what we are looking at, what is above us, what is below us. It orients us. It is much more than what we see, what we hear, what we touch, what we smell. It is one of our deepest deepest dreams. Daniel Libeskind once said, “architecture is one of the biggest unwritten documents in history”. Buildings and urban spaces should be designed first and foremost around their occupants. The importance of architecture as a trigger to physical, physiological and psychological wellbeing is nowadays becoming a topic of significant relevance.
Hypothesis Architecture can take us along for a ride should we choose to design it to do so much like a story. Although every building wasn’t created to tell an architectural story, the way we experience it is much like a story. If we were to adopt the telling of narratives as fundamental design principles, we could once again reinvigorate buildings so that they can be worthy of exploring. 20
Research questions • How does architecture influence movement? • How does circulation in architecture affect human psychology? • How can architecture encourage movement without restricting a person’s free passage and decision making within the built environment? • What are the physical and psychological factors that affect people’s perception of spaces? • How can such factors be integrated, controlled or applied architecturally?
Aims The aim of this paper is to explore and investigate these subtle relationships and interconnections in order to create a taxonomy for evaluating movement in buildings. To understand and re-define the static and dynamic nature between the people (expirencee) and space (the experience).
Figure 3
Objectives To study connectivity between various essential nodes and use this connectivity as a motivational factor towards promoting human circulation. To examine social cohesion and sense of space, promoting various movements like expressed movement, contained movement and represented movement where there is an implication or illusion that the architecture is in motion. To analyse the visual dynamism of forms that evoke movement.
Scope & Limitations This research studies movement patterns in architecture with respect to museums in an urban context as a generic typology. No specific type of museum or particular kind of exhibits have been considered. As this research study has taken place during a pandemic, the research range has been limited to a desktop study and readings. 21
Figure 4
Compilation: The data is compiled together to form a study material for the project. In this step, all the data that is collected through case studies, live interactions, discussions, articles, is compiled in a particular format and manner. At this stage, the data can be relevant or irrelevant, it does not matter. Collation: In this step, the data that is roughly formatted in Compilation process is now formatted in a precise manner. All the relevant and irrelevant data is examined thoroughly and is analyzed - understanding the right and wrong of it, how much is needed and how much is not needed, etc.
22
After, examining the study material, all the unwanted matter is eliminated and only the most accurate matter is kept. This makes the collected study material and research apt. The collated data now form the literature part of the book and acts as a supporting matter to the proposed project. Case studies arealso narrowed down and are included to support the project. Conclusion: This is the final stage of the book. This involves the Site selection and the analysis of it justifying why this selected site is perfect for the proposed project. After site analysis, Space area program is established upon which the design takes shape and the final design is made.

Apparently, movement cannot be related to architecture because buildings are static. Architects have long been trying to employ movement in their works. With the development of new interests and schools in architecture, this tendency has been growing recently more than ever. As a result, many types of relative research have been conducted, whether by studying a specific factor or architectural element or by defining new taxonomies. Two diagrams most relevant to the scope of this research can be extracted from these studies. Architectural movements are categorized in these diagrams.
This study divides movement types into three major groups: movement in relation to architectural form and space—where the existence of the explorer is not necessary and architecture involves embedded motion per se; movement of a spectator in relation to the built form; movement of an explorer in relation to the built space.
Research Methadology 23
Speaking of movement in architecture, the first thing that comes up is the existing movement in architectural form and space that has stemmed from architectural elements in motion. Then, the visual movement of a spectator followed by the physical movement of an explorer attracts the attention. There are other movements derived from the spectator’s mind. Some other movements in architecture do not need the explorer’s presence.
It means that architecture involves motion, with or without the explorer. These type of movements is the potential, or future movement imagined or kinetic movement embedded in architecture—a simple example of this movement is that of a mill in traditional houses. These movements would also influence architectural form and space, similar to the movement of natural and pictorial elements in architecture. Sculptures and paintings also express an inherent motion.
2. Various Movements in Architecture 24
Figure 6
Kineticism in architecture has become ubiquitous with the advent of new technologies in the modern period. Architecture is being influenced by technology so that it receives an even more significant impact from kineticism. When “Revolving Buildings, Skin Unit Systems, Retractable Elements, and Biomechanical Systems” (Ramzy & Fayed, 2011) appeared, the movement became enriched more than ever.
“Plug-in-City, Blow-out Village, Walking City, and Instant City” (Ching, 2011, p. 778) are some imaginary designs remaining from the modernists. They can be considered as other aspects of kineticism.
2.1. Kineticism 25
Figure 7
As expressed by Hardy, pictorial representation refers to “figurative portrayal of movement (through sculpture, painting, and such)” (Hardy, 2011). Thus, pictorial representation consists of sculpture, painting, and relief. Sculptures and relieves imply a sense of movement induced whether by proliferating patterns or potential or future movement imagined. In other words, a sculpture contained by space implies an action. Similar to photography, a painting captures a specific moment of a particular sequence of motions. Therefore, like many other phenomena in nature, the event of movement can be painted.
2.2. Pictorial representation 26
With that said, painting on walls, ceilings, or floors—mainly referred to as composing elements of the form—can be treated as an emanation of motion. Accordingly, sculpture and painting are regarded as types of movements instead of architectural elements of movement. It is because they depict a moment of a series of motions. Similar to sculpture or painting, modern buildings may feature a pictorial representation. Asefi highlights that some buildings are designed as a “Virtually Live Body”. He has defined this as “Frozen Transformation” (Asefi, 2012). A building, in this sense, has to be seen and perceived in many facets.
Figure 8
In addition to manifesting reviviscent properties in the architecture, the movements of natural elements are also fluid mechanisms. Stavridou refers to this as “Breathing Architecture” (Stavridou, 2015) when defining the role of air circulation. The movement of the primary natural light sources is slow in the sky. Albeit, their travel path can be illustrated in the space. Creating specific openings in the form would depict the passage of light through space. Water and light have prominent roles in forming architecture, specifically in the traditional Eastern and Iranian architecture. Water-related architectural elements, as well as openings and manipulations in the form, create an altering space dominated by natural light in the space, in turn, displaying movement. As a result, they decelerate and ultimately stop the circulatory movement of explorers by giving them a sense of peace.
Further, they provide a chance to stimulate other types of movement. The circulation of water would also provoke the sense of hearing. As natural light changes colour and direction during the day, it would transform the space and gives the sense of time passage. Salimi et al. have studied the role of light and water in architecture. In addition to these applications of light, water, and wind in architecture, they are also capable of altering buildings—since they have “Contained Energy”. This kind of transformation can be observed in primitive shapes which employ natural energies to represent applied movement in their form, e.g. in the mills. This can also be seen in modern shapes as in biomechanical systems.
2.3. The movement of natural factors 27
Figure 9
Visual movement is a type of physical movement. “The movement of the ocular muscles” along with “the projection of movement onto objects” are referred to as two ways of motion perception in modern psychology (Stickells, 2010). Eyes move from one point to another point on the form to perceive the architectural form and its embedded details. Concerning this, the movements of ocular muscles can be divided into four types; horizontal movement, vertical movement, rotational movement, and free movement of the eye. In the opposite side of the real movement of the eye, there is the virtual movement which can be linked to “projected movement”. In this regard, eyes are deceived by particular patterns creating an illusion of movement. The visual experience of movement, as explained by Arnheim, occurs because of three factors: “physical movement, optical movement, and perceptual movement”.
2.4. Visual movement 28
Also, perceptual movement is defined to be correlated with several factors such as the difference in “intensity”, “variability” (in size or shape), and “enclosedness” properties of objects (Arnheim, 2004, pp. 379, 380). These differences perceptually make one object to be in motion compared to another object. Sometimes a different factor other than the ones mentioned above causes the projection of movement on the form. “Motion of the field” (Brady Peters, 2001) is a reaction to the movement of the observer (while standing on a kinetic element like an escalator or during the movement of the body) that is referred to as “Parallax”. Therefore, all of the architectural elements or factors related to transporting the observer’s body could also cause parallax. Smooth surfaces can barely generate parallax. Thus, the architect needs to employ the same factors of creating projected movement in order to have the “motion of the field” generated. With that said, parallax and projected movement are interconnected.
Figure 10
Circulation is a process that commences instantly by being present in an architectural place, and “whether we are conscious or innocent of this process, our bodies and our movement are in constant dialogue with our buildings” (Ching, 2014, p. 251). Body movement is a component of circulation as a product of the movement of an explorer concerning the built space. This movement is divided into horizontal and vertical subdivisions. Alongside body movement, there is another movement which is associated with a mind in the architectural space. “Projected bodily movement” (Hardy, 2011) is the process of imagining the movement of other creatures in space—whether a human, object, or animal— e.g. imagining a body traversing up or down when encountering a spiral staircase.
On the one hand, this movement is imaginary and should be sorted out in the mental or visual movement subset. On the other hand, however, this movement occurs in the space— more specifically, in the circulative spaces—and not in the form. Therefore, in this paper, it would be considered as related to the built space and as a corollary to circulation. When we move through an architectural place, we would interactively affect the space around us and transform it because of circulation. Concerning this interactive relationship, Plummer argues that: The kinetic elements of buildings (doors, windows, shutters, and gates) that we can directly control and finely adjust with our fingers and hands. Moreover, sometimes our entire body can give us the power to immediately alter the space around us in meaningful and desirable ways. (Plummer, 2016, p. 67)
2.5. Circulation 29
Figure 11
As thoughtful beings, the movement generated in our mind is much more complicated than that in our eyes and bodies. “Technical, and functional circulation, as well as narrativized aesthetic experience” are described as the attributes of “architectural promenade” (Stickells, 2010). Technical and functional circulations are discussed in the previous sections. What remains to complete this promenade is a narrativized experience. Despite physical forces that would cause motion in objects, there are some forces in the built form that are perceived psychologically by the spectator. Psychologists call them “Psychological Forces”. In this sense, “Perceived Forces” refer to all psychological forces evoked in the observer’s mind. These forces include “Inertia”, “Dynamism”, “Imagined Forces”, and “Visual Forces”.
2.6. Mental movement 30
“An observer sees the pushes and pulls in visual patterns” and “perceptually and artistically, they are quite real” (Arnheim, 2004, pp. 16–18). Considering that fact, if they are real, they would perceptually contain motion. Hardy (Hardy, 2011) has also argued that objects that are close to each other would illustrate an interaction repulsion. On the contrary, if they are at a distance from each other, they would show an attraction toward each other. He also attributes Gestalt to visual forces. Likewise, “Subtractive Form”—Subtraction—would fall among this type of movement. These are pieces of evidence of “Visual Forces”. Ching brings the house at Stabio as an example. About subtractive forms, he then explains that: We search for regularity and continuity in the forms we see within our field of vision. If any of the primary solids is partially hidden from our view, we tend to complete its form and visualize it as if it were whole because the mind fills in what the eyes do not see. (Ching, 2014, p. 58).
Figure 12 The term “Sensational Movement” in this paper refers to the inner experience of our bodies in the built space. Pallasmaa has explained that the forms expressed in architecture would be conceived in a collaborative process through our sensory organs and then would generate imagination and “Sensory Thoughts” (Pallasmaa, 2012, pp. 45-49). In other words, “Sensory Thoughts” are outputs of the presence of an explorer in the architectural space. With that being said, the sensation is the movement of a soul in the space. The explorer’s body can feel this movement in certain situations created by the built space. In this study, “Arousal”, “Time Passage”, and “Tendency” are counted as the components of the sensational movement. A fine example of sensory thought that contains movement is Plummer’s metaphor of Gothic churches described as “stone forests”: … virtual and actual trails weave through and around thousands of slender marble spires, which foliate into screens and filigrees, catching and absorbing our vision, slowing us down but giving us choices on how we might scramble over the rooftops. (Plummer, 2016, p. 224)
Time can be sensed throughout architecture from another perspective, but the degree of its presence varies. In the research by Shemesh, Bar, and Grobman (2015) exploring human reaction in various spaces, it has been concluded that people have particular feelings for every specific shape in the built space. These feelings evoke psychological tendency or the willingness to move towards that shape or within that space. The behaviourists believe that the built space stimulates our movement (Figure 7b) mostly through sensation and mainly through tendency. For instance, when an explorer is situated in a built space with a low degree of enclosure and with an intensified perspective toward a direction, he would sensually tend to move toward that particular direction—even before starting the body movement.
2.7. Sensational movement 31
Figure 13 32
The aforementioned types of movement are correlated with architectural factors and elements which cause motion. This means that each of them is stimulated because of a certain factor (or an architectural element). Architectural elements are not just the visual elements of architecture. Rather, they are configurations which interact with memory (Pallasmaa, 2012, p. 67), thought, imagination, eye, and body. They are sometimes the manifestations of movement per se. These elements are the most discussed subjects throughout the related literature. In some references, “continuity, sequence and flow” (Estremadoyro, 2003) as well as transparency are considered as the factors promoting movement. More comprehensively, in his book titled Architecture, Form, Space and Order, Ching introduces “approach, axis, circulation space, path, the flow of space, elevated planes, hierarchy, rhythm, light, enclosure, opening, asymmetrical curved surfaces or multiple perspectives, as well as linear and radial geometry”* as the architectural elements and factors which contain movement or would stimulate it. Plummer would add “Threshold” to this list when he refers to ancient Japanese temples’ gateways as “a stimulus to action” (Plummer, 2016, p. 198).
Regarding these notions, senses of “Security” and “Privacy” can be considered as psychological motivations for one moving from one place to another. Pallasmaa has argued about an architecture of “Sensory Experiences”. He instances an architecture in which senses like somatosensation and vision could cause body movement (Pallasmaa, 2012, p. 75). Identically, these senses in addition to olfaction, gustation, and audition are able to compel various types of movements when they are employed by an architect. As already noted, various factors and architectural elements might work together to motivate certain type(s) of movement, as in Scala Regia (Vatican staircase) designed by Bernini. Studying ramps, Stickells (Stickells, 2010), on the other hand, clarifies that the role of ramp can be more prominent than being just a mere circulatory element of architecture. Therefore, a single ramp can motivate and manifest various types of movements, as other factors and architectural elements can do the same.
3.Movement factors and elements in architecture *(Ching, 2014, pp. 254, 11, 12, 351, 352, 294, 290, 156, 157, 114, 298, 363, 370, 187, 189, 184, 174, 177, 191-193, 44, 218, and 228)

Figure 14
This study investigated movement in architecture throughout various documents dealing with relationships among space, form, and observer (or expirencee). It was shown that different factors are involved in expressing movement in architecture. Also, diverse types, factors, and architectural elements of movement were explained.
4. Analysis 34
The reasons for the presented approach for categorizing movement is as follows: First, mental and visual movements are caused and stimulated by the form. In contrast, circulatory and sensational movements are motivated by being present in the space. Besides, there are other movements in architecture which are not related to the expirencee’s presence. It means that architecture involves motion, with or without the expirencee. In this sense, architectural promenade includes visual, mental, circulatory, and sensational movements. Meanwhile, kineticism, pictorial representation, and natural factors’ motion would compose architectural motion.
Figure 15
Therefore, a qualitative-quantitative table is drawn to estimate and assess movement in architecture (Table 1). This table shows the presented taxonomy of movement in this paper. It helps to increase the quality of movement in architecture—thus the experience of architecture—by evaluating the movement in any desired built form and space.t
The table can be used by dotting in order to compare the movements manifested in different buildings. It can also be used to estimate which types of movements are more frequently manifested in a particular building. Every dot placed at each cell represents a certain type of movement (listed at the top of the table) which is stimulated by the corresponded architectural factor or element (listed at the left side of the table).

KEY MESSAGES 1. Changing Perspective - The MHM offers different perspectives on German military history. The architecture, the new thematic exhibition and the redesigned permanent (chronological) exhibition represent both traditional and new forms of perception and expression. The juxtaposition of tradition and innovation, of old and new interpretations of military history, is the cornerstone of the new approach. 2. Cultural History of Violence - The MHM offers visitors a history of the German military. But it goes beyond uniforms and weapons in its investigation state-controlled violence, offering new ways of assessing that history and the culture of violence that gave rise to it. 3. The Central Theme is the Human Being The central theme of the MHM’s architecture and exhibition design is an anthropological consideration of the nature of violence. The museum closely examines the fears, hopes, passions, memories, motivations and instances of courage, rationality and aggression that have precipitated violence and, all too often, war. 4. Museum as Forum - In addition to presenting current and historical topics in special exhibitions and events, the MHM will host screenings, lectures and international symposia. 5. A New Museum District - Once a prosperous and heavily visited area, Dresden’s Albertstodt district, in which the museum is located, has been deserted for some time. The new MHM will be the catalyst that turns the district into an international destination, a cultural center and a museum district. Made add’l change. Figure 20

6.2. The Bihar Museum 43
44
This constant presence of the natural environment within the Museum “campus” creates a rich, unique experience with each visit, one that changes with the time and seasons. It is hoped that this will encourage repeat visitors, and - together with world-class permanent and temporary exhibits - ensure that the Bihar Museum has a lasting educational impact for the children of Bihar and other visitors from across the world. The Museum’s exterior is characterized by extensive use of weathering steel, a durable material that complements its context and creates a dignified contrast to the surrounding greenery. The weathering steel symbolizes India’s historical achievements in metallurgy as well as its current prominence within the international steel industry (of which Bihar’s rich natural resources have played a critical role). It is supplemented with stone, terracotta, and glass finishes - a modern material palette with clear connections to Bihar’s past and future. The project was selected as the winner of an International competition in 2011 (other competitors were Coop Himmelblau, Norman Foster and Partners, Snohetta, and Studio Daniel Libeskind). The building began construction in June 2013 and was largely complete by October 2017. Exhibition installation is ongoing and will be completed in 2018. Figure 23

6.3. Museum of SocialismJayaprakash Narayan Interpretation Center 47
48
The museum within is an experience in space design with the depiction of Jayaprakash Narayan as a chronological narrative of a linear journey. It is divided into two zones; the zone of absorption and the zone of reflection. As the names suggest, these spaces enable absorption of information triggering curiosity and contemplation which then is expected to lead to reflection and assimilation. Thus the museum is not just a container that preserves frozen albeit inspiring moments of a past but breeds them and ensures that they percolate into current reality, and lay the foundation for the future.Thus while the various exhibits and narratives remain centre stage, the building offers surfaces, volumes and elements as tactile backdrops. The convention centre and the museum inserted as anchor points defining a principal node of the city along with their bold but sculptural forms seem destined to remind people of the immense power they possess; the power to bring about change. Figure 27

Under this investigation, the author has a more specific and more profound understanding of the spatial constitution and functional organization of museum architecture. Meanwhile, through literature studies, the author gives some advice on museum architecture: Audiences not only pay attention to the exhibits themselves but also care about the spatial environment around the exhibits. Audiences will visit the exhibition because the exhibits are attractive. Therefore, it is essential to arrange visiting routes and build an exciting environment for visitors in the design of exhibition space. As we all know, comfortable rest space can help relieve fatigue faster. Thus, scattered setup of all types of rest space enables audiences to have a rest without having to go far, which enhances their favourable impression of the exhibition museum so that they will stay longer in the exhibition museum.

Questionnaire survey refers to a research method which puts forward problems and collects material in written form. The author designs a questionnaire in terms of visitors’ satisfaction with museum architecture. Questionnaires were distributed in each age group, respectively. As a result, 100 active questionnaires are taken back in all. Next, statistical analyses of their results are conducted. The users (expirencee) were questioned and made to retrospect on the kind of spaces they utilize, prefer to go to, and spaces they find appealing.

Analysis of investigated data Based on this investigation, it is essential to create an attractive exhibition space in the design of museum architecture to improve the visiting ratio of the exhibition. At the same, convenient and labour-saving transportation means should take precedence, and diversified design of rest space should be paid attention.
The author recognises the significance of analysing such kind of architecture from various perspectives to explore its spatial constitution and functional organisation. This research generalises and puts forward methodology to design exciting exhibition space, convenient traffic space and diversified rest space.
Cultural architecture, especially, museum architecture, is of significant social value and importance for the improvement of city image, and the optimisation of people’s living environment.
The audiences of museum architecture refer to the group that it serves. For audiences, the most intimate functional space in a museum architecture consists of three aspects, i.e., exhibition space (Henderson, 2001), traffic space and rest space (Henderson, 2001).

The result shows that in some buildings, the movement of natural elements can play a prominent role in the whole system of the construction. This can be related to the existence of more types of movements other than circulatory and optical; such as the flow of natural elements, sense of time passage, association, and the impact of water and wind. In this essay, the term “Movement in Architecture” was redefined and taxonomy was presented regarding not only the movement of body and eye but also of mind, soul, pictorial representation and natural factors, as well as the movement of architecture itself. The collocation was developed based on the relationships among form, space, and expirencee (or observer). Three types of relationships were defined in this regard: • Movement concerning the built form and space • Movement of the observer with the built form • Movement of the expirencee about the built space. The overall goal to create a new ordination was achieved in the form of a table of observations (Table 1) depicting the interconnections among different types, factors, and architectural elements of movement. The generated table is a framework for the qualitative-quantitative assessment of “Movement in Architecture” in any building, whether employing a scale through a questionnaire or a descriptive report. The author hopes the conclusion of this research can act as guidance for the practical construction of museum architecture.

Site Justification Cultural architecture, especially, museum architecture, is of significant social value and importance for the improvement of city image, and the optimization of people’s living environment. Generally speaking, museum architecture, belonging to the category of public cultural architecture, consists of a museum, exhibition hall, gallery and others. It aims at research, education and appreciation as well as collects, saves, studies transmits and exhibits witnesses related to human beings and their environment.
Practically, museum architecture can present, collect and study collections. With the progress of the era, it additionally possesses an aesthetic function. Keeping in mind the concepts established earlier, Site-2 suggests being the optimum site in terms of context, history, growth of the district, and application of research.

Exhibition space
Circulation space
Exhibition space acts as both the primary space in architecture, for instance, museums and the carrier of the exhibition.
Circulation space is the bond that links other kinds of space, so it plays a critical role in organizing the streams of people and guiding visitors.
Rest space Forms of rest space in museum architecture are diversified, pauses are necessary for one to stop and witness the movement and enhance the experience.
Museum as a symposium Besides presenting current and historical topics in special exhibitions and events, this space will host screenings, lectures and international symposia.
Absorption and Reflection spaces As the names suggest, these spaces enable absorption of information triggering curiosity and contemplation, leading to reflection and assimilation.
Ethnology Studio This space acts as a catalyst to challenge existing cultural notions and encourages dialogue and experimentation through innovative programming.
Archival Space The Archives Department supports the Museum’s mission and assists scholars and researchers by acquiring, preserving, organizing, and describing the documentary evidence throughout history.
Multifunctional spaces for promoting Performing & Fine Arts The locals have much potential in the field of performing arts and fine arts, but they lack spaces to explore and refine their talent.
Multifunctional spaces for promoting Community involvement and Interaction The institution can also act as a place for social upliftment by providing multifunctional space for gathering and celebrating festivals, Community Library. The spaces can also include communal kitchens to promote local food.
