Designing Exhibits for the Experience.
- Authors
Russell, Robert L.
- Abstract
The article offers guidelines for developing exhibits with particular focus on design and visitor experience. The author recommends to help visitors identify the major theme of an exhibition by presenting them something that they are already familiar with. Exhibit environments and elements should be perceived as attractive, comfortable and inviting by visitors, according to the author. Another factor to consider in designing exhibits is their accessibility and ease of use. Other recommendations include presenting real objects and phenomena, ensuring that visitor expectations are met and using text or audio to support visitor experiences.
