Ex/changing knowledge: What shared discovery reveals

Project case study for Student Knowledge Exchange activity between BA Graphic Communication Design and partners from the GLAM sector (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums).

This case study documents five parallel projects running in Stage 2, Unit 7, across our five study platforms:

01. Narrative & Voice, led by Andrew Hall in partnership with the Natural History Museum: activating archives to help people become “advocates for nature”.

02. Strategy & Identity, led by David Preston with Wellcome Collection: reimagining the visitor journey as an inclusive brand experience, designing near-future interventions for 2030.

03. Time & Movement, led by Michelle Salamon with London Museum: creating a documentary on London’s food markets as living sites of labour, culture, and exchange.

04. Information & Systems, led by Paul Finn with Transport for London: designing speculative wayfinding systems for a London journey in 2036.

05. Experience & Environment, led by Benjamin Cain with Museum of the Home: imagining domestic life in 2056 through multisensory room-sets and handmade artefacts.
