When we share ideas and collaborate to build a concept from start, there are synergies, that enables an integrated experience, where all parts work together naturally and coherently.
Client: Östasiatiska museet / Museum of far Eastern Antiquities.
Team: Charlotte Ryberg (design concept, visual identity and exhibition graphics), Marcia Harvey Isaksson (project management, design concept, spatial design)
This was a true collaborative project with Interior Architect Marcia Harvey Isaksson, SqCircle. I was responsible for the exhibition graphics as well as, together with Marcia; the foundational design concept that ran through everything.
The project consisted of a cultural-historical main exhibition as well as a contemporary gallery space. We also did a redesign of the childrens atelier Draken along with conceptual and campaign photos and films.
The visitor walks through scenographic walls with a look and feel of large scale sheets of paper, here an epilogue session with several cut paper sections. The typographic story is imbedded on the sheets, guiding the visitor to a new theme, like starting a new chapter in a book.
The exhibition title. Handcut high-quality paper. Visible behind it is an antique scroll.
Scenographic walls like a large scale paper scroll make up a listening station.
Turning ideas into reality is a collaborative effort. Here me and Marcia create the title image together with the museum archive staff, making sure the antique scroll used for the title image is handled properly.
Walls like folded paper. A new chapter is introduced, in Swedish and in English.
Folded object stories, printed on high quality paper.
How it started. Me and Marcia facilitated a workshop for the project team, to learn about the objects, get the insights, explore the theme openly and share thoughts and ideas.
