Bank Indonesia Museum
Relicase collaborated with BDA Design, an Indonesian architectural practice, to design an educational and research-oriented museum for the Indonesian public. This project was planned to demonstrate the work and expertise of the Central Bank of Indonesia to the rest of the world.
The museum is equipped with more than 86 vertical sliding vitrines with integrated fiber-optic lighting systems, 10 frameless plinth-mounted cases, and 24 freestanding units that combine frameless cases and hinged doors, all lit with a fiber-optic lighting system. Bank Indonesia museum is a bank museum located in Jakarta, Indonesia.
It was founded by Bank Indonesia and opened on 21 July 2009. The museum is designed to introduce the public to Bank Indonesia’s role in Indonesian history. The museum also provides visitors with an audio and visual experience on the history of currencies and trade in Indonesia from the pre-colonial era to the present day. The museum features a display collection that includes old currencies, dating back to the 14th century pre-colonial era, as well as old banknotes from around the world.
