Grand Muze

A museum in chapters

Do not treat a large museum as a checklist. Pick a first gallery, a slower middle, and one final room that you want to remember.

  • Keep the first hour lighter than the middle of the visit.
  • Use the building’s changes in light and scale as navigation clues.
  • Leave a little space for the object you did not plan to find.
