Exhibit design

It is a continually evolving field, drawing on innovative, creative, and practical solutions to the challenge of developing communicative environments that 'tell a story' in a three-dimensional space.

Taking into account with artifacts culture and history is also important because every time the artifact is displayed in a new context it reinterprets them [5] Exhibit design is a collaborative process, integrating the disciplines of architecture, landscape architecture, graphic design, audiovisual engineering, digital media, lighting, interior design, and content development to develop an audience experience that interprets information, involves and engages a user and influences their understanding of a subject.

All types of exhibits aim to communicate a message through engaging their audiences in meaningful and compelling interactions.

The first phases establish a thematic direction and develop creative and appropriate design solutions to achieve the interpretive and communication goals of the exhibit.

The latter phases employ technical expertise in translating the visual language of the designs into detailed documents that provide all the specifications required to fabricate and install an exhibit.

[7] Exhibition design in different parts of the world are influenced by the local culture as well as the availability of materials.

[8] Participatory activities are also becoming more popular, Nina Simon has done research describing and identifying themes and trends in museums that will attract visitors and educate them in fun and engaging ways.

New full-body or multi-user interactive technology can help engage visitors in fun activities that support exploratory learning.

This means volunteer, go back to school for a higher degree or a new certificate, or take a smaller step in your career towards the job you want.

This is because museums are conservative at nature and therefore the professional's who aid with designing exhibits are limited by the core mission as well as audience's expectations.

[13] As briefly discussed earlier there are many people who help aid the exhibit designers or oversee the process within the museum.
