Museum of the Home is a museum based in the heart of Hoxton. Formally an Almshouse, it was converted into an Museum to showcase living room displays through time and learning about the history of domestic life and everyday things.
Museum of the Home’s new exhibition titled “Rooms Through time” explores personal stories and objects reflecting the lived experiences of the East London community—past, present and future, showcasing how ways of living, furniture, textiles and decor have adapted through the ages.
I was tasked with producing a new sub brand for the exhibition, creating assets that would help aid the communication and promotion of the opening. Working directly with the comms team & director of MotH, we produced invitations and teaser posters that would be sent out to curators and community that helped bring the exhibition together.
We felt it was best to use key objects from each of the eras to tease the exhibition in a way that give more insight into what to expect. There should be a level of neutrality throughout, by adding a halftone pattern and using silhouettes it allows for harmony and shows how all the objects are equally important. We also introduced a new colour into the brand that followed the brand guidelines so that the exhibition can have it's own identity but coincides with the overall brand.
Rooms through time is now open to the public as of 23rd July 2024.
