About
Unloop has developed a proposal for The National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC) in Cairo, the first museum in the Arab world dedicated to Egypt's ancient civilization. Featuring a collection of over 50,000 artifacts spanning from prehistoric times to the present day, the museum aims to humanize its displays and preserve Egypt's rich heritage. The museum positions itself as more than just a repository of artifacts, striving to bring Egyptian history to life through vibrant cultural, artistic, and scientific contexts.
After exploring the Main Exhibition Hall and the Royal Mummies Hall, where visitors are primarily confronted with a series of artifacts and mummies of pharaohs and queens, we have identified an opportunity to develop a more immersive, digital experience. Our goal was to create a new area that seamlessly integrates with the existing exhibits, rather than serving as an appendage or disconnected component.
Likewise, our approach aims to enhance visitor engagement with the exhibits through modern technologies such as augmented reality (AR) and immersive installations. Through our proposed solutions, we aim to transform NMEC into an interactive journey through time, fostering deeper connections with Egypt's heritage and culture.
