13. GENERAL OBSERVATIONS Whenever it is proposed to build a museum whether large or small-there is usually one preliminary matter to be settled : the choice of a site . Where several possibilities are available, The drawbacks and advantages of each must be are fully weighed. site should be central, or on the outskirts of the town. A museum should always be readily accessible from all parts of the town by public transport and, if possible, be within walking distance as well, and must be within easy reach of schools, colleges, university, and libraries .

14. Moreover, space will always be available -at least in theory-for future expansion, either by enlargement of the original building or by the construction of connected annexes ; The beauty of a museum is considerably enhanced if it is surrounded by a garden which, if the local climate is propitious, can be used to advantage for the display of certain types of exhibit , such as ancient or modern sculpture, archaeological or architectural fragments, etc. Part of the surrounding grounds may also provide space for a car park .

16. A street are the connections between spaces and places , as well as being spaces themselves. They defined by their physical dimension and character as well as the size, scale and character of the buildings that line them.

17. Transport system connect the parts of cities and help shape them, and enable movement throughout the cities. They included road, rail, bicycle and pedestrian networks and together from the total movement system of a city. The balance of these various transport system is what helps to define the quality and character of cities and makes them either friendly to pedestrian.

18. The landscape is the green part throughout the city – in the form of urban parks, street trees, plants, flowers and water in many forms. The landscape helps define the character and beauty of a city and creates soft, contrasting spaces and elements.

19. Semi-public spaces A broader meaning of public space or place includes also that places where everybody can come if they pay, like a café, in train and movie theater etc. Government buildings which are open to the public, such as public libraries are public spaces, although they tend to have restricted areas and greater limits upon use. A shop is an example of what is intermediate between the two meanings: everybody can enter and look around without obligation to buy, but activities unrelated to the purpose of the shop are not unlimitedly permitted.

20. The semi-public zone includes all the -civic spaces’ surrounding a public building, as well as the building facade, entrance, and ground floors, and is managed by the building manager or their service provider. To create a good transition to the building property, the outer edge of semi-public zones are often bordered by attractive fences, bollards, or planting beds, and programmed with a range of amenities and activities for public use. Gardens, fountains, seating areas, and kiosks with small outdoor dining areas are all possible amenities to consider for this zone. Through careful planning and management, many of these institutions have succeeded in creating lively civic spaces – without sacrificing standards for security and cleanliness – for which the public itself assumes a sense of ownership and responsibility.

21. Principles: 1. Connecting the Sidewalk to the Building Exterior spaces bridge the gap between the building and the surrounding sidewalks. Depending on how this critical transition is treated, the flow from public zone to semi-public zone may seem smooth and seamless. 2. Providing Focal Points One way of welcoming the public into a building’s exterior spaces is to provide functional focal points such as kiosks, sculpture, or benches, where people can meet before entering or after leaving the building. 3. Image and Identity Exterior public spaces offer a prime opportunity to put a strong image and identity for a public building. Through the use of elements such as fountains, gardens, and public art, these spaces can become recognizable destinations and seasonal draws and attractions.

22. 4. Programming and Management A building’s semi-public spaces require more management than other areas . Because exterior spaces are ideally suited for public events such as live performances and festivals . 5. Building Base It’s essential for property managers who want their buildings to strengthen the fabric of the neighborhood. the base of the building should include elements of visual interest that attract pedestrians and gives them a positive impression of the building as they walk. 6. Human Scale Elements located at the base of the builidings should be of a scale that is accessible for viewing by pedestrians
