CULTURAL ARCHITECTURE · SIDI BOUZID, TUNISIA

Museum of the
Revolution.

A competition proposal that translates collective memory and the pursuit of dignity into a powerful civic architectural gesture.

PROJECT / 03COMPETITION PROPOSAL
First Prize — National Architecture CompetitionAward designation provided in project brief

An architecture of
memory and renewal.

Located in Sidi Bouzid, where the Tunisian Revolution began, the museum proposal imagines a public institution dedicated to remembrance, learning and the shared historical memory of Tunisia.

The composition is deliberately monumental: fractured sculptural volumes evoke rupture and transformation. A tall, angular central opening brings light into the building, while an ascending stair leads visitors toward the entrance—a spatial metaphor for the pursuit of freedom and dignity.

A restrained mineral material language and a generous public forecourt give the project a civic presence. Spaces for gathering and contemplation link the proposal to the surrounding urban fabric.

CORE DESIGN PRINCIPLES
  • Collective memory and historical identity
  • Fragmented volumes as an expression of change
  • The ceremonial ascending entrance
  • Public space for reflection and gathering
