In a large museum under an open sky the monuments of the wooden architecture are located — the unique samples of the architectural and construction culture of the 17-20th century with house carving (blind carving). The museum concept allows to present the variety of the folk architecture, its original engineering solutions

and artistic approach.

A lot of work to preserve and promote the cultural heritage is underway. As one of the main stylistic elements,

the Bukvitsa, an Old Slavonic alphabet has been implemented in our project.

Each letter represents a unique illustration with its own history and storyline inspired by the threaded patterns. Bukvitsa — is a distinctive language of the organisation of the museum space. Its figurative structure serves

as a main element of communication and knowledge sharing. It can be integrated in the various design

spaces delivering the original as well as the recognizable image of the museum.
