Abstract

Currently, museums are struggling to develop and present their expertise by focusing on the interactive relationship with museum visitors. In order to meet the needs of museum exhibitions, an efficient and workable design process is of primary importance in order to work to develop high quality museum exhibitions. It would be advantageous to generate a design method which allows designers and curators to undertake design work in the context of museum exhibition project. Based on an empirical analysis, this paper suggests that a systematic transformation develops specific aspects of detailed design to carry out its principle, and that the implementation of these aspects can be viewed as a process of organizational criteria of museum exhibition design projects. The paper is concerned with design process in organizations seeking to act systematic criteria in the design activity on the application of museum exhibition project development in complex theories. In particular, this study is developed to address the following objectives: a) To identify the characteristics and concepts of the design activity as they relate to museum exhibition design; b) To contribute to a more complete understanding of design process by developing guidelines for adoption in projects. c) To establish the benefits of the application of design guide theory to the practice of museum exhibition design;

Mapping the Design Criterion Framework for Museum Exhibition Design Project

Currently, museums are struggling to develop and present their expertise by focusing on the interactive relationship with museum visitors. In order to meet the needs of museum exhibitions, an efficient and workable design process is of primary importance in order to work to develop high quality museum exhibitions. It would be advantageous to generate a design method which allows designers and curators to undertake design work in the context of museum exhibition project. Based on an empirical analysis, this paper suggests that a systematic transformation develops specific aspects of detailed design to carry out its principle, and that the implementation of these aspects can be viewed as a process of organizational criteria of museum exhibition design projects. The paper is concerned with design process in organizations seeking to act systematic criteria in the design activity on the application of museum exhibition project development in complex theories. In particular, this study is developed to address the following objectives: a) To identify the characteristics and concepts of the design activity as they relate to museum exhibition design; b) To contribute to a more complete understanding of design process by developing guidelines for adoption in projects. c) To establish the benefits of the application of design guide theory to the practice of museum exhibition design;
