Beyond the COMMONS

  • Samuel Li

How can the museum open to the public by creating a new common ground that allows hosting various events to welcome people and maximize the use of the space? Beyond the COMMONS is an urban intervention that aims at turning the surroundings of the Historical Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina in Sarajevo into a community asset. It consists of a sequence of multiple installations recalling the memory of the tunnel of hope and translates it into a framework to collect new narratives for the future.

Spatial Structure
The installations are pavillions, observatories and stairways. With the high flexibility, route guidance and comfortable environment setting, it would enhance creating a new common ground that allows the building of the future narrative, for example, music live, talks, vintage market and other events.
Location
The installations are designed for the public area surrounding the Historical Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The sequence of the installations would begin from Zmaja od Bosne and end at Vilsonovo šetalište.
