The New Quest; a transformative experience design exhibition for children

At: Maritiem Museum Rotterdam

This thesis's scope is developing an exhibition about climate change for children between 4 and 12 years old by using transformative experience design for the Maritime Museum Rotterdam (MMR). Its relevance is to translate this difficult social-environmental problem into a playful exhibition for children to understand the topic and be encouraged to think of sustainable solutions for the future. This research resulted in a list of guidelines to design an exhibition for children about climate change. These guidelines are used for the creation of the World of Wonder (WOW) an experience design method framework of Bär & Boshouwer, (2019. The proposed exhibition consists of the visitor's journey, visitors' flow and the visitor's experience. These elements are visualized by writing the storyline for the exhibition, making a maquette and a storyboard of the intended visitor's experience.
