Starting from the schemes developed in the PreDesignBlog, the MicroMuseum grew into a very special kind of Mini-Architecture in the course of further design and final construction. Still, the final shape turned into something completely fresh and unexpected, a result of collective creativity that goes beyond determined design concepts. The fine-grained structure of the facades, the exterior design with a "wooden waterfall", as well as the interior design with showboxes and windows just naturally developed in the course of building. The result of this incremental "design"-process is a small structure that yet impacts the site quite strongly, while fitting into the context of the village centre, the garden-area, and the neighbouring buildings. Noteworthy to mention: village children as well as a number of elderly people had been permanently on site during the last days of construction. Obviously, both parties seemed much attracted by the playful small building, seemingly waiting for taking over the structure. This being especially satisfying as both groups are the designated future users of the site and its further re-development into a seniors house plus children playground.
