Purchase options and add-ons

Great exhibits are never an accident. Planning effective exhibits is a demanding process that requires the designer to consider many different aspects and navigate numerous pitfalls while moving a project from concept to reality. In Museum Exhibition Planning and Design, Elizabeth Bogle offers a comprehensive introduction and reference to exhibition planning and design. This book focuses on both the procedural elements of successful planning, like the phases of exhibit design and all associated tasks and issues, and on the design elements that make up the realized exhibit itself, such as color, light, shape, form, space, and building materials.

This helpful guide includes:
  • Breakdown of the design and development project phases used by professional planner/designers
  • Principles of good design as they pertain to: color, light, shape, form, space, line, balance, accent, rhythm, proportion, and scale
  • Criteria to evaluate an exhibit and measure its success
  • Discussion of construction contracts and procedures
  • Discussion of building materials and their advantages and disadvantages
  • Glossary of museum and design terms for easy reference
Bogle has translated her years of experience as an exhibition planner into a guide for practitioners of all sizes and levels of experience. For the solo practitioner, perhaps working with limited or no staff in a small institution, Bogle walks through every task that will be faced as the project develops. For the staff member of a larger institution or firm, this book serves as a checklist, reinforcing the instruction that comes from peers and previous experience. Museum Exhibition Planning and Design is a useful tool for anyone interested in or involved in bringing their exhibits to life.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Museum Exhibition Planning and Design is outstanding, both as a reference and as a how-to guide for the exhibit development process. It is sure to be ‘the Bible’ of museum exhibit design.
-- John McDevitt, Vice President of Operations, Please Touch Museum, Philadelphia

In this valuable and extraordinarily comprehensive guidebook to the exhibition process, Bogle successfully weaves together the conceptual, theoretical and practical elements of exhibit planning and design. Incorporating numerous personal insights and helpful anecdotes, Museum Exhibition Planning and Design is must for every exhibit professional’s bookshelf!

-- Cory Amsler, Vice President of Collections and Interpretation, Mercer Museum and Bucks County Historical Society, PA

    Bogle is specific in all the steps that are necessary to successfully create and complete an exhibition. Her long and impressive career as a designer informs all parts of this text adding personal context and invaluable experience. There is a wealth of information that will be beneficial to all involved in exhibition planning and design, including museum administrators, curators, and especially the designers. A must for students in Museum Exhibition studies!
