Communication Design: Design for Exhibitions

3 units

This course explores graphic design as a spatial and experiential practice. Students will design interpretive and informational experiences for exhibitions from concept to execution. They will develop or adapt curatorial themes, investigate audiences, and conduct site-specific research. Course projects will address exhibition identities, large-scale wall graphics, information systems, wayfinding, and supporting media. Students will prepare work for public spaces, participate in local museum visits, and learn from practitioners in the field. Collaboration and research are emphasized throughout the course. Students will be evaluated through project critiques and course engagement.
