A guide to exhibition design for museums, heritage, and trade and world fairs. This edition has only been changed a little, and certain chapters have been added, renamed or amended. It does not seek to teach style, fashion or taste, but concentrates on the skills and practicalities of design.
Whether a world fair, an art gallery, a museum or trade show, all exhibitions deal with the same basic commodities, objects and informative space.  The skill of the exhibition designer lies in using suitable techniques to ensure that the objects are explained in an accessible way to the widest audience. This guide deals with the whole range of exhibition design, describing both people and processes involved in briefing, mounting, maintaining and evaluating exhibitions. It provides the essential principles of designing an exhibition, whatever its nature and size, and serves as an introduction for the non-specialist and a guide to good practice for students and professionals alike.

Giles Velarde has forty years experience in exhibition design moving through commercial exhibitions to government information, then as head of design at a national museum and finally as a freelance consultant; in the last twenty years writing and lecturing both in the UK and abroad.  He was a Fellow of the Chartered Society of Designers and is a Fellow of the Museums Association and the Royal Society of Arts.
