The umbrella term exhibition design incorporates the development of commercial trade fairs, brand experiences, themed attractions, world expositions, museum galleries, visitor centres, historic houses, landscape interpretation and art installations. Supported by case study examples and practical tips, this book offers a comprehensive guide to the practice of exhibition design, and considers the blurring of its borders with other design disciplines, such as graphic design.
