The main building of the SNM consists of two large halls. The first, on the ground floor, presents Sudanese antiquities dated from Palaeolithic times to IV century A.C. The second hall, on the first floor, presents the collection of the frescos of the Faras Cathedral of the IX century A.C.

• The exposition has to include the capacities of a modern IT and/or video equipment;
• The exposition has to present the existing golden and jewellery artefacts;
• The developed exposition design must be approved by the Project Advisory Council, which mainly contains historians and archaeologists working in Sudan.
• The design must comply with Sudanese standards and preferably with British standards as it is widely used in Sudan.
