EXHIBITION
Exhibition is one of the main communication vehicles with the public. Planning an exhibition involve various steps and each project demand specific museographic solutions.

A museum is a place where all actions are under specific protection parameters, documentation, study and interpretation, where the conceptual basis is the heritage and its relationship with the visitor.
For each interpretative design should be adopted adequate resources to all age groups and adapted for people with disabilities in fun and interactive language, making access as wide as possible. For this, museographic resources can be used as interactive dashboards, models in motion, videos, computer networks, electronic games and various experiments.
