Aatma Manthan Museum

Nathdwara, India

Sanjay Puri Architects

Culture

Mumbai, India, 2024-08-27 - 

Within the base of the 270-foot high statue of belief in Nathdwara, Rajasthan, India, a museum to evoke self analysis, bringing together a holistic combination of the soul (aatma), mind (mana), and body (tann), has been created in a an 18,000 sq.ft space.


In keeping with the concept of the museum in terms of what needs to be portrayed, the overall space is divided into a series of rooms, each of which offers a different experience through the depiction of natural elements in immersive experiences.


The museum is entered through a large foyer, purposely designed as a fluid volume. The walls, ceiling, structural columns, reception desk, andseating benches are homogeneously finished with a thin layer of foam concrete that fluidly encapsulates all of these elements, while simultaneously absorbing sound.


This sculptural volume, enveloped in a concrete grey, calms visitors, transporting them to a tranquil state prior to entering the 18 sequential zones that have been created.


Visitors are led from this cavernous entrance to a narrow undulating corridor with images portraying the making of the museum. Next, each room is entered one by one, with different themes conveyed through audio visuals and immersive experiences.


The design of this museum overcomes the challenge of working with a floor plan that is irregular in shape, with multiple structural elements, creating a sequential flow of volumes and experiences with a neutral palette throughout to enhance the audio visual and immersive experiences within.
