“Scribus
ergo sumus” = We write; therefore we are.
Communication unites generations, shapes civilizations, and amplifies cultural voices. Writing, the foundation of communication, preserves thoughts, emotions, and knowledge. The National Museum of World Writing celebrates this legacy, marking writing’s past and future.
INSCRIBE translates writing’s evolution into architecture, encouraging exploration like a nonlinear story. Movement guides visitors through a journey that connects scholars, students, and curious minds.
The experience mirrors writing’s history. Visitors descend into an earth-carved path, recalling early inscriptions, then move through spaces that unfold writing’s transformation from carved symbols to digital expression. The journey culminates in breathtaking views and enlightenment.
INSCRIBE balances contrasts—light and shadow, openness and enclosure—reflecting writing’s dual power. Glass walls promote transparency and understanding, while engraved concrete recalls ancient inscriptions. The museum seamlessly blends with its surroundings, its rooftop merging into Songdo Central Park, creating a dialogue between nature, history, and innovation.
