House of Alsace (limited competition)
Our mission: program analysis, exhibit design, design of interpretive tools.
Since 1968, the House of Alsace has been inviting its visitors to discover different aspects of the region— cultural, economic, social and environmental. Located on the Champs-Elysées avenue (Paris), seven floors are devoted to exploring the Alsatian region.
To augment the image of Alsace, a competition was launched for the refurbishment of the architecture and interior design of the House.
Through an in-depth study of the interpretive goals and objectives of the House, Anamnesia then worked with the project architect to define and visualize these concepts. The region is characterized by its complexity: torn between France and Germany for ages, it is also looking toward the future in a more united, stable European environment. So, Alsace is plural, polymorphous— on the edge between past and future, tradition and innovation— making Alsace a unique region in contemporary Europe.
This concept unfolds through the exhibit design. The transition between the two faces of Alsace is symbolized as visitors ascend in the House, from the entrance hall to the top. Multimedia and audiovisual devices emphasize the concept, and immerse the visitor in an unique experience.
