Designing Exhibitions: A Compendium for Architects, Designers and Museum Professionals (2nd, Updated Edition) (English and German Edition)

Successful exhibitions are much more than just objects on display. The fascination of an exhibition comes from the dynamic interplay of communication, knowledge, interaction, experience and contemplation. Drawing on examples from the authors own experience as exhibition designers, this book examines every phase of exhibition creation. Topics include concept and design, presentation and staging, communicative forms and media, text and graphics, typography and layout, and the use of lighting. Throughout the book, full-color illustrations, sketches, diagrams, wall plans, models and photographs provide detailed insights into the design process.
