INTRO
For the special exhibition “Steel and Bytes – Ein Schiff entsteht” at the German Maritime Museum in Bremerhaven, we developed an interactive model that makes it possible to experience the processes of a modern shipyard.
The heart of the exhibition are five large-format touch screens on which transparent 3D-printed and laser-cut models of an archetypal shipyard are displayed. The objects are designed in such a way that they can be staged precisely, by backlighting them with content on the screens.
Key challenges
At six stations, visitors can interact with typical shipyard tools and thus call up custom-fitting information and animations on the individual processes involved in building a ship.
THE OUTCOME
Multilingual texts and an atmospheric sound design serve as a common thread. The interactive model is framed by a coherent exhibition design in which the reference to exhibits from historical shipbuilding is conveyed.
