Designing for museums taught me to think beyond static screens. I had to consider movement, interaction, and real-world engagement. Lessons in precision, accessibility, and seamless interaction still inform my design approach. Whether for a museum, app, or immersive environment, the goal remains the same: create intuitive, invisible, and deeply human experiences.

 

In the late 2000s, gesture-based interactions and multi-touch interfaces were just beginning to take shape, largely due to the emergence of the iPhone and other mobile devices. But museum interactives were working within a very different set of constraints.

 

Designing for touchscreens laid the foundation for modern interactive experiences across multiple industries. The turning point was transitioning from niche applications—like museum kiosks and ATMs—into mainstream consumer devices such as the iPhone, iPad, and interactive retail displays.

Museums are evolving. Gone are the days of displays behind glass cases. Today, they are interactive, multi-sensory spaces, blending digital storytelling with physical artifacts to create experiences that engage visitors in new and unexpected ways.
