• The average ratio of gallery to non-gallery
space in the UK is 48:52, with permanent
displays taking up 40% of the total area. Non-
gallery space includes areas devoted to
storage, curatorial activities, visitor facilities
and education.

• ANTROPOMETRY
 Orientation
• The undirected visitors be becomes bored
sooner and leaves the museum soonest.
• Guiding devices such as floor plans,
directories, signs, information staff and salient
cues should be placed.
• Most visitors want a simple floor layout with
out confusion
• distance time is more important according to
the function.
 Route selection
• Visitors take the shortest route between the
gallery entrance and exit.
• Most visitors will view right side exhibits are
ignore the left side once.
• Placing to many exits will make the visitor
move out.
• Too many rooms entry from 1 room will make
visitor feel exhausted.
 Object and gallery satiation
• Lack of diversity and contrast in exhibits and
gallery design ( lighting, air, spatial contrast) will
shorten the viewing time.
• Visitors walking speed increase as they tour the
museum
• Visitors stay longer with in first galleries than the
succeeding exhibits rooms
• In large museums the likelihood that a visitor will
observe any give picture is less than in small
museum

gallery space than at exits
• Visitors use less area when a gallery space
doesn’t contain an exit
• Visitors use more area In gallery space which
use dark colour for wall surfaces , flooring and
ceiling than galleries which use light colours
