There are several good books on exhibit design. Also check out exhibitoronline magazine annual award issue. All the best of museum and trade show designs
I'm going to be working with some paleobotanist friends to create an exhibit. It's going to be a mix of panels with images and some text, and also some 3-d elements as well as small shelves or brackets with actual fossils. I'm going to be contributing images but also helping to design and build the exhibit. I haven't done this before and I'm wondering if any of you can recommend a good basic text on science exhibit design. We're not going to make it interactive (other than possibly using some QR codes) as it's going into an existing floor-to-ceiling glass case along a wall.
Any and all tips will be much appreciated!
