Exhibition Design

Exhibition Design by Thomas Deckker in conjunction with Michael Frantzis.

The exhibition design exploits this very difficult exhibition space located on the top floor of the RIBA foyer.

RIBA exhibition focus
A focus was created by locating the main model between the columns.

Framing the model on the plinth gave a focus to the journey to this part of the exhibition.
