位于巴林穆哈拉格的一个混凝土和玻璃幕墙的展览空间，由策展人兼建筑师Noura Al Sayeh Holtrop和Leopold Banchini建筑事务所负责设计，作为一个通过设计鼓励与公众互动的常年画廊。
“建筑遗产之家”是一个最小的，当代的社区补充;它的钢筋混凝土立面从周围的泥土色调和粗糙纹理中脱颖而出。一根26米长的钢筋混凝土梁横跨整个画廊，使玻璃墙完全开放，成为行人的公共通道。该设计让游客体验到邻居的立面作为展览的一部分。画廊空间包括建筑师约翰•亚伍德的档案，他是20世纪80年代Muharraq建筑遗产的主要记录者。除了这些草图和图纸，还有一个小型的建筑图书馆和展览区。
A concrete and glass-walled exhibition space in Muharraq, Bahrain, was brought to life by curator-architect Noura Al Sayeh Holtrop and firm Leopold Banchini Architects, as a perennial gallery that encourages the public’s interaction through its design.
The ‘House Of Architectural Heritage’ is a minimal, contemporary addition to the neighborhood; its reinforced concrete facade stands out from the earthy tones and rough textures of nearby properties. A 26 meter reinforced concrete beam spans the length of the gallery, which allows the glass walls to open out completely, doubling as a public passageway for passers-by. The design lets visitors experience the neighbor’s facades as part of the exhibit. The gallery space encompasses the archives of architect John Yarwood, a leading documenter of Muharraq’s architectural heritage during the 1980s. Alongside this display of sketches and drawings is a small architecture library and exhibition area.
