3. AUTOMOBILE MUSEUM& ASSEMBLY PLANT:

AIM OF THE PROJECT:

Reason for choosing this type of project can be to experience something

new. In the developed countries this types of projects are common. But in our country this is
quite new. Another reason of this proposal is, almost all the cars are imported from foreign
countries like Japan, china, Malaysia etc. So there are issues of foreign import taxes which
eventually make the car price unreachable for most of the people of our country. So it can be
tried to solve this problem by assembling cars within our country. There is no such museum which
is dedicated to automobiles in our country. So this museum can become another milestone for
our country.

SCOPE OF THE PROJECT:

1. To design an automobile museum this will exhibit different types of

automobil in chronological order.

2. Also it will exhibite different parts of an automobile and also cars of different
eras.
3. To design an assembly plant of Pragoti industries limited
.
4. To accommodate two different functions and creating logical and necessary
connections between them.

NET CASE STUDY:

Automobile Museum by 3GATTI Architecture

Chief architect: Francesco Gatti

Client: Jiangsu Head Investment group CO., LTD
Location: Jiangning area, high-tech zone, Nanjing, China

3GATTI Architecture Studio of Rome and Shanghai have won a competition to

design an automobile museum in Nanjing, China.
An external concentric ramp allows visitors to drive around the exterior of the
museum in their own car, past the exhibits to a roof-top car park. Visitors then
descend through the museum on foot via an internal ramp.
The museum is articulated in two concentric helicoidally ramps; in the external one
the visitor drives up the exhibition area in his own car, an experience that the
architect describes as a “safari” because the visitor, as a motorist, is an exhibit
himself
