Narrative Installation

Narrative Installation is a history museum created for an art academy campus in Guangzhou, China. The project transforms an existing campus building into a spatial narrative device that combines architecture, exhibition, landscape, and immersive media. Nine thematic zones are arranged in a loop across about 2315 square meters and are linked by a central foyer with two entrances. Touch panels, motion-activated visuals, and narrative lighting allow visitors to move at their own pace. Lightweight structural retrofitting supports flexible spatial change.

Narrative Installation Educational Institution Building by Wu Duan has been recognized as an innovative illustration of architectural design by the A' Design Award & Competition.
