Design Interactives
During my work experience at the museum, I actively engaged in the critical role of evaluating and refining exhibit spaces and interactive elements. I delved into the intricacies of designing diverse visitor experiences, considering factors such as mediums, spatial arrangements, and contextual relevance.
Objectives
My responsibilities included brainstorming innovative enhancements for existing interactives, aiming to improve functionality and adaptability. I conducted daily museum visits, closely observing visitor interactions with exhibit stations. Furthermore, I had the chance to experiment with new technologies, facilitating the integration of both old and new interactives into exhibit spaces, enriching the overall visitor experience with a seamless and immersive approach.

- Experiment technologies that could help old/new interactives fit in spaces, for visitors to experience full circle moment
Listening Stations
Each gallery has a listening station to preview music of the different styles of songs, videos, speeches. Colour coded to specific genres, each component was carefully looked at in terms, functionality, accessibility, usability and hierarchy. The main goal was to modernize the interaction seamless and eye level to the visitors accommodating to the galleries aesthetic context
