The museum is located in Loulis company historic flour mill in the industrial area of Keratsini, Peiraeus. The exhibition lighting follows the museological narrative while accenting the sculptural features of the large machinery displays, the museum’s display cases, the collection of artefacts and the printed and digital media. The lighting structures that have been custom designed for the museum. The concept of the structures is based on an industrial ‘piping system’ that curries light, integrating in the buildings rawness and industrial context. The exhibition itself is playful, colourful and multisensorial such as light itself.
