The history of California’s Coastside region goes human scale in this teaser exhibition. The museum board presented The Exhibits Dept. with an empty building and a challenge: create a flexible display to show the region’s history while also allowing for a larger, permanent exhibition to come. Our solution was a series of freestanding silhouettes—with bold color and graphic design—to anchor major historical periods. Tactile props and repurposed artifact cases complete the design.
