Great exhibits are never an accident. Planning effective exhibits
is a demanding process that requires the designer to consider many
different aspects and navigate numerous pitfalls while moving a
project from concept to reality. In Museum Exhibition Planning and
Design, Elizabeth Bogle offers a comprehensive introduction and
reference to exhibition planning and design. This book focuses on
both the procedural elements of successful planning, like the
phases of exhibit design and all associated tasks and issues, and
on the design elements that make up the realized exhibit itself,
such as color, light, shape, form, space, and building materials.
This helpful guide includes: *Breakdown of the design and
development project phases used by professional planner/designers
*Principles of good design as they pertain to: color, light, shape,
form, space, line, balance, accent, rhythm, proportion, and scale
*Criteria to evaluate an exhibit and measure its success
*Discussion of construction contracts and procedures *Discussion of
building materials and their advantages and disadvantages *Glossary
of museum and design terms for easy reference * Bogle has
translated her years of experience as an exhibition planner into a
guide for practitioners of all sizes and levels of experience. For
the solo practitioner, perhaps working with limited or no staff in
a small institution, Bogle walks through every task that will be
faced as the project develops. For the staff member of a larger
institution or firm, this book serves as a checklist, reinforcing
the instruction that comes from peers and previous experience.
Museum Exhibition Planning and Design is a useful tool for anyone
interested in or involved in bringing their exhibits to life.
