This design concept transforms the landscape surrounding the National Museum of Maritime into an immersive, symbolic ocean ecosystem. The museum itself becomes the "deep sea," while the undulating terrain—through sculpted landforms, reflective water features, and blue-toned paving—mirrors ocean currents, tides, and seabed topography. Visitors begin their journey at the "shoreline," gradually descending into the "abyss" as they approach the museum entrance.

Along the Marine Path, a series of artistic installations guide the way:

Fish-shaped markers (e.g., illuminated glass or recycled metal structures) appear to swim through the landscape, pointing directions or embedding informational plaques about marine species.

Shell-shaped seating, shelters, or light fixtures offer rest spots while evoking clams, conchs, and scallops half-buried in "sand" (gravel or textured ground cover).

The path itself may be lined with wave-patterned tiles, embedded fiber-optic "plankton," or sound-emitting stones that play ocean murmurs when stepped on.

"This narrative route educates visitors about marine biodiversity, navigation history, and conservation—before they even enter the museum. It also encourages outdoor exploration, blending art, architecture, and ecology into a poetic prelude to the museum's collections."
