This course examines the planning and designing of three-dimensional environments that encourage visitor’s understanding, participation, and emotional engagement.

Following the course participants will learn practical tools to observe a space and its interaction, will design an exhibition according to a brief and will develop a presentation of complete exhibition design proposal.
