A Man, A Century...
We succeeded in uniting the concepts of exhibition space, concert hall, creative center and open space for encounters.
At the beginning of the design process we asked ourselves: How can we tell the story of a whole lifetime by using mostly graphics? But we didn't only turn towards pie-charts and pictograms.
Our motto: Moving on from text to graphics!
The foundation of our exhibition concept is made up of staves along which Ernst Krenek's life unfolds: interactive graphic boards are arranged as notes on these 5-line displays.
An information design that invites you to dive in.
A life is told along staves
To provide the versatile use of the space, we created mobile exhibition displays that can be easily moved.
The most important invisible design element: seamless acoustics!
This enables fantastic spatial and listening experiences.
INVISIBLE DESIGN ELEMENTS AND MOBILE DISPLAYS
Ernst Krenek (1900-1991) is one of the most important and multifaceted composers of the 20th century. He was not only an outstanding musician and thinker, but an equally great pedagogue.
