INSPIRATION

I took images of the house and its surroundings, which served as a guiding influence in crafting the brand identity and the design for the exhibit.

BRANDING

Inspired by The Grove's historic and natural setting, the brand reflected elegant simplicity, blending modern and timeless elements seamlessly.

PANEL DESIGN

The exhibit had a total of 37 printed panels for the entire house. Each area in the house told a story from a specific era, which was distinguished by the use of color.

DIGITAL INTERACTIVES

I designed 12 digital, interactive touchscreens for the exhibit, which included eight panel stations, two audio stations, a wall station, and a touch table. My focus was on ensuring a user-friendly flow and optimizing simplicity.
