The thick vegetation of the northern side continues towards the south, inviting/bringing the park to the interior, leaving to fade at the river banks. The north and south accesses are realised through the woods, heading in the direction of the public square and the deep-set complex. The main entrance of the excavation is found on the Nechrou side, facing the meeting point of the Nechrou street with the Chylonos street. Spaces develop mainly on two levels; one above ground, at street level, and one below ground.  The one above looks like it fades as one walks along the main exhibition.

The idea of the layout was based on the revelation/exposure of a buried in the earth treasure and was captured as a gesture, defined by a uniform sloping movement. The movement is expressed in the slanting floor surface of the exhibition space, which obliges the visitor to a downward underground progressive course. A course which sets off at street level (+0.00m) and ends at 5m underneath the earth surface. Two concrete slabs, 28.00m wide, define the length of the inclined interior; the interior which in the North, upon reaching the street level, forms the entrance to the museum.
