Text description provided by the architects
The exposition “Kerbedz: Following TheEngineering Ideas” is inspired by Stanislav Kerbedz (1810–1899), a 19th-centurycivil engineer. Kerbedz was also the landowner of LuznavaManor and his daughterbuilt LuznavaManor. The interactive exposition is located in three rooms of theManor's basement. In the first room - Hall of Fame you canget acquainted with Kerbedz's professional career through the decades at themoments when he received awards. Each of the awards is designed as a stylizedinteractive object on the wall, which audiovisually tells story about theengineer's achievements. On the interactive screen in the center of the roomyou can travel around the map of Europe and get acquainted with the engineeringprojects of Kerbedz. Kerbedz has also been a lecturer inengineering at the university, so the second room is designed as a classroom. Just like in an unusual lesson in physics or history, visitors can learn aboutthe beginnings of building bridges, tunnels and railways, as well as the lawsof physics that affect construction and the difficulties that engineers havehad to overcome. In the classroom at the blackboard, anyone interested is alsoinvited to test their knowledge in engineering, as well as skills in buildingbridges and other structures. The third Hologram room is a place where youcan see various objects related to LuznavaManor and engineering structures inthe 360-degree landscape. Here the visitor is addressed by Kerbedz himself inthe image of the ghost of LuznavaManor.
