The design envisages 800 square meters of exhibition space and some 1500 square meters in total.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">In addition, the Board of Trustees reached agreement on the essential features of the Information Centre&#8217;s content. A working group had previously been given the task of formulating and elaborating these features, and the results of its work envisage the centre as having four thematic spaces: the \u00bbRoom of Silence\u00ab, the \u00bbRoom of Fates\u00ab, the \u00bbRoom of Names\u00ab and the \u00bbRoom of Places\u00ab. Furthermore, plans for the centre include a generous multifunctional foyer. The working group will continue to work on the concrete form of these thematic rooms. In a further step, exhibition coordinators and designers will be brought in to work on visualisation, design and media aspects.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Board of Trustess approves Eisenman design for an Information Centre located under the Memorial site and comes to an agreement on the orientation of the centre&#8217;s content. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13813,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[160,159],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-18706","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-latest-news","8":"category-press-release"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
