RECREATIONAL CLUB

1. INTRODUCTION
Recreation or fun is the expenditure of time in a manner designed for therapeutic refreshment of
one's body or mind. While leisure is more likely a form of entertainment or sleep, recreation is
active for the participant but in a refreshing and diverting manner. A time in which individuals are
not compelled to do anything, and are free to choose to relax or to take part in a leisure activity.
Leisure has important social functions, including relief from the demands and restrictions of work.
Most people enjoy socializing with friends for dinner or a drink after a hard day at work. For many
young people, having a regular night out a week is a normal part of their free time, whether it is
joining friends for a drink in a pub, dining out in a restaurant, watching a film, playing video games
or dancing at a club.

Types of leisure
Active leisure activities involve the exertion of physical or mental energy. Low-impact physical
activities include walking and yoga, which expend little energy and have little contact or
competition. High-impact activities such as kick-boxing and football consume much energy and are
competitive. Some active leisure activities involve almost no physical activity, but do require a
substantial mental effort, such as playing chess or painting a picture. Active leisure and recreation
overlap significantly.

Passive leisure activities are those in which a person does not exert any significant physical or
mental energy, such as going to the cinema, watching television, or gambling on slot machines.

Some leisure experts discourage these types of leisure activity, on the grounds that they do not
provide the benefits offered by active leisure activities. For example, acting in a community drama
(an active leisure activity) could build a person's skills or self-confidence. Nevertheless, passive
leisure activities are a good way of relaxing for many people.

ILLUSION MUSEUM
1. INTRODUCTION
MUSEUM
A building where objects of interest or value are collected, conserved, exhibited,
and interpreted. The discipline of designing, organizing (curating and preparing
exhibits), and directing museums is called museology.
Museums continue to evolve and change. New technologies, emerging art forms and
collections, and diverse audiences have given rise to new museums and exhibition
environments. The functional and operational requirements that are unique to the
museums.

ILLUSION
An illusion is a distortion of a sensory perception. Each of the human senses can
be deceived by illusions, but visual illusions are the most well-known. Some illusions
are subjective, different people may experience an illusion differently. Illusions are a
very nice window into how the brain works, because illusions can reveal the hidden
constraints of the visual system in a way that normal perception fails to do so. In
addition, illusions are fun, b e c a u s e they combine both the element of joy as well as
the element of surprise.
Many illusions are found in architecture. Many of these were recognized long before
painting developed beyond its primitive stages. The classic Greek architecture displays
a highly developed knowledge of many geometrical illusions and the architects of
those far-off centuries carefully worked out details for counteracting them.

ILLUSION MUSEUM
There are different kinds of illusions. For many years many people around the world
have been working on the illusions and implementing in different ways. In order to
preserve and exhibit to the people one museum is required. When the illusions are
placed in the environment like museum, the space shall carry a special interest.
And also the ideas about the possibilities to make wonders with shapes and
materials. It is most like a learning place and entertainment to help the students and
people to give idea about the illusions while having fun. Illusions can be in different
mediums like paintings, sculptures and interactive exhibits. These kinds of exhibits can
be preserved and displayed in the museum.

2. Aims and objectives:

To achieve the expression of freedom in the form and display spaces.
To improve the aesthetics in the form and finishing.
To make dynamic and interesting spaces with illusions.
And also to make museum spaces more interactive and illusive.

3. Scope and limitations:

The illusions are related to geometrical shapes, colors, materials, light and many
things. The concept of illusion can give lot of scope to think and achieve the
functional spaces more lively and with lot of expression. It helps to develop the
futuristic ideas for the designing all kinds of architecture needs. All the illusions which
can be achieved on paper can not be achieved in architectural form, some illusions
might possible.
