Design 3: Single-story building with standardized walls
 
In line with the present slope of the land, the floor levels of all exhibition rooms have been planned to gradually incline from the entrance towards the back of the interior. A sloped corridor on the courtyard side connects each exhibition room. Some of the partition walls between adjacent exhibition rooms will be operational and staircases will connect the exhibition rooms. Flat walls are unitized and loophole decorations (multiple crowsteps) adorn the top parts, forming rooftop breast walls. In addition, the rooftop symbolizes the ancient Nabataean culture: the rooftop garden will be accessed by a crowstep that connects various levels of the rooftop alcove. The surrounding mountains will be used as borrowed scenery.
