About this event

Summary
A special exhibition at The Postal Museum exploring the functional beauty of postal architecture through the lens of windows.

Details
The exhibition focuses on the windows of post office buildings, which are representative examples of postal architecture. These windows are not merely structural elements but also served as service counters. The display examines the evolution of these buildings, highlighting how meticulous design considerations ensured brighter and more comfortable environments in both the lobby and back office during an era before advanced electrical and air conditioning systems. This approach reveals the careful planning that made these spaces functional and aesthetically pleasing.
