Slovene Ethnographic Museum: SEM, a case study

This paper presents the technological part of activities executed in the framework of MUSEUMS Project Slovene Ethnographic Museum, Ljubljana, Slovenia. There were two main fields of inter-ventions: construction with new envelope design, new heating–cooling wall panel system, which replaced the originally designed air condition system and ventilation which is used for physiological and cooling purposes, and a control and management system which takes care of the best possible harmonization of the demands on the temperature, humidity and air quality level upgraded with a permanent monitoring system. We are obliged to stress, being aware of the environment in which this paper will appear, that the success of such projects depends on extensive collaboration of all involved partners from the very beginning.
