The museum, promoted as part of Ewha Womans University\u2019s centennial commemorative project, was intended as a symbolic embodiment capturing the university\u2019s century-long history and the spirit flowing within it. It serves as a self-contained entity marking the closure of the last century and the starting point for a new century. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Situated closest to the university\u2019s main gate, the museum\u2019s significance lies more in its location than its scale, capable of defining Ewha\u2019s first impression. It adopts a stone finish that shares the broader context of and can be homogeneous with the existing campus order and environment, while its spatial composition follows the basic form of a stone building divided into three parts: the base, the body, and the top. The five segmented diamond-shaped forms and their sloped roofs symbolize the blooming of a pear blossom bud, Ewha\u2019s emblem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The interior space is arranged in a hall form, with a central commemorative exhibition hall surrounded by individual exhibition rooms. The central hall\u2019s upper part features exposed lattice beams with a skylight at the apex, enhancing a sense of centripetal force through the effect of light. The permanent exhibition on the second floor, the planned exhibition on the third floor, and the central hall\u2019s exhibition are all set at different heights to accommodate various exhibition types. The first floor houses storage, a library, offices, an artifact conservation room, and a mechanical room, with the storage area beneath designed as a PIT floor about 1.5 meters thick with double slabs, planned to facilitate temperature and humidity control as well as ventilation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
