LAY OUT

THESE ARE A COUPLE OF PHOTOGRAPHS I TOOK AT MOUNTFITCHET CASTLE, WHERE THEY HAD A FRONT ENTRANCE WITH GLASS CABINETS DISPLAYING THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN FOUND ON THE SIGHT.

THESE HAVE INFLUENCED ME ALOT WHEN THINKING ABOUT HOW TO LAY OUT THE IMAGES AND TEXT ON MY WALL CHARTS. I LIKE THE WAY THAT THERE IS VERY LITTLE DISTINGUISHING THE DIFFERENT OBJECTS FROM EACH OTHER APART FROM THE CARDS WITH THE TEXT ON. THERE IS SOMETHING QUITE SATISFYING ABOUT DISCOVERING THINGS YOU HADN'T NOTICED THE FIRST TIME YOU LOOKED.

THIS WEBSITE IS ALSO A REALLY NICE EXAMPLE OF HOW MY OWN WORK COULD REFLECT THAT OF MUSEUM DISPLAYS. THIS IS THE MUSEUM OF DENMARK'S HISTORICAL DISPLAYS, WHICH ACTUALLY INCLUDE SOME EXAMPLES OF THINGS FROM THE NORMAN ERA THAT I AM LOOKING AT...
