Overview
A portion of my exhibit work was developing visual systems to support the entire exhibit. They needed to mesh with the existing exhibits and architecture to create a cohesive experience. Below are a few excerpts from my exhibit brand work.

THE GROVE MUSEUM
The brand for The Grove museum was inspired by its natural setting and historic architecture. I developed the brand from scratch to reflect The Grove's elegant simplicity, blending modern and timeless elements seamlessly. The design system translated to both print and digital platforms.

Voice
Mount Pleasant's new town hall was under construction when I began the exhibit design for the lobby. Interior design finishes and architectural details had already been selected for the space, so I used those as a guide to develop the design system for the exhibit. To complement the interior details, I choose wood grains, watery blues, timeless fonts, and pops of silver.

Brand Application
I designed the "Living Loft" space within the Old Santee Canal Park Interpretive Center. Although the center didn't have an established brand, it featured several existing exhibits. Drawing inspiration from those exhibits and the surrounding natural environment, I developed a cohesive visual experience that tied the space together.
To create an emotional connection with visitors, my teammates and I decided to use "our" verbiage in the exhibit, which functioned as the primary message for each exhibit panel.
