Sound and room
In designing the visual identity and the catalog for the exhibition, we chose to focus on the idea of music in contemporary art and music in the context of the exhibition space.
On each surface, the letters in the exhibition title were gradually reduced. Relating to each format as a room. The typography visualised an echo being reflected back and forth before it finally disappeared.
