I worked in this extensive project as Exhibition Graphic Designer for the permanent exhibition of the new Museum of Wrecks, together with the team at Expology, who was responsible for the Exhibition Design. The foundational Exhibition Identity and the custom font was developed by Banker Wessel. I will update with more photos of this project soon.

This exhibition has a high level of interactivity. Both analogue and digital. We supported the UX/UI team with original artwork.
Testing, testing, testing. We always strive to be able to test colours and materials on sight with testprints, material samples, colour reference for architectural prints on existing and sometimes complicated materials.
Detailed drawings with exact measurements for the applications on each section, each surface. This was of high importance on this project since all graphics was integrated on the surface i.e. printed directly on the architectural surfaces.
