When we visiting the museum, we only saw the tip of the iceberg. Most of the collections are stored in the warehouse. The most valuable museum in Taiwan, the National Palace Museum in Taipei, has a collection of nearly 700,000 cultural relics. It takes more than a hundred years to present it in a conventional exhibition. This project is a re-imagining of the museum square with a new underground exhibition space, a visible warehouse managed by the latest technology, artificial intelligence, big data and automated storage operations.
