In architecture, Museums are specialized buildings designed to exhibit and preserve collections of art, historical artifacts, and other significant objects of cultural, scientific, or historical importance. Museum buildings often incorporate unique design features and construction techniques that are tailored to the specific needs of the collections they house, such as climate control systems, specialized lighting, and security measures. In addition to providing space for exhibitions, museum buildings may also include areas for research, storage, administration, and public amenities such as cafes and gift shops.
