We were asked to rethink the Art-Gallery experience for a small gallery in a small tourist town with both local and big city clientel. Determining that the driving force and differentiating factor to this project was stories, we dove in and generated ideas and executions amplify the stories of the art.

The process was collaborative with the gallery owner, and went through Research, envisioning and planning before any of the executions were begun. Here is a glimpse of that process and it's results.

What if everyone could be involved in a completely un-pretentious way? Cheap blackboard + whiteboard paint could quickly create a space for viewers to become commentators. To share interpretations and opinions on the work allowing it to be more accessible and less precious.

What if there was an emphasis on the story? For the O's vision, the story is as important as the artwork, and is part of the DNA of the store. Show it off, don't let the story go un-noticed on a tiny card beside the art. Let the stories paint the store.

Final business card design. There's one card for each potential interest a customer has: Art, Craft, or Design which correspond with the offerings in the gallery.

The brochure reads as a storybook without words. That is, until you notice a UV varnish of inspirational themes and words overprinted on the entire thing.

Love the idea of scribbling comments on the walls. Fantastic interaction and yes, makes the art much more accessible.
