Case Study

02. Background

Offline exhibition space

The design school's annual graduation exhibition has traditionally been held offline.

    As digital and interactive projects grew,
    the physical format revealed several constraints:
  • - It couldn’t fully showcase interactive or media-rich work
  • - It limited who could experience the exhibition
  • - It lacked longevity and couldn’t support future promotional needs

The limitations of the physical format pointed toward the need for a more immersive and enduring digital exhibition.
