HYPERKIT

A reference to one of the websites Aaron was looking at during the last meeting - Hyperkit from London who really achieve the lo-fi exhibition design style we have been discussing - with the use of trestle tables, shelving & modular systems.














(P.S. I totally dig the look of the ENAMEL ALPHABET signage)

I think the Hyperkit references also show how simply the design of the exhibition and the identity can interact with eachother - which is what seems to have made the past shows more or less successful - esp. with Design Republic, where the concept of the show was reflected throughout the design of the space - from printed material to maps to signage and installations.

I think this is completely achievable for us - especially is it was simply a matter of commissioning the construction of a number of plywood made systems such as the following.... (which are other collected references from around the interweb...




(Above is the Central St Martins Grad Show from last year)







I do realise that a lot of these are displaying small printed books etc. and won't apply to all of the UTS students but I think the concepts can apply for us and be designed in a way that works for all - or we can find modular systems that can be bought.
