The Archaeological Museum of Istanbul was opened to the visitors for the first time at the end of the 19th century. Currently, the Museum is undergoing a process of transformation into a new contemporary institution. BMA was privileged to be assigned the development of the concept and detailed project of the entire Museum. This work includes the re-distributing more than 2000 thousand objects along 36 galleries.
