Museum and exhibition design
Museum exhibition design integrates research, narrative, circulation, collections, conservation, architecture, graphics, lighting and media. Proyecto Museo develops permanent museums and temporary exhibitions from an intellectual structure that precedes formal expression, carrying buildable solutions through opening.
What museum exhibition design is and who designs a museum
Museum exhibition design organizes the relationship among content, collections, space, visitor circulation, conservation, light, graphics, and media. A complete museum also requires institutional direction, museology or curatorship, architecture, conservation, engineering, production, and operations.
