George Nelson Exhibition

We worked with the Powerhouse Museum to develop an identity and campaign for the exhibition. The graphics were modern interpretations of George Nelson’s most famous pieces, including the ball clock, bubble lamp, coconut chair and marshmallow couch. The exhibition travelled from the In Vitra Design Museum, Germany as part of the Sydney Design festival.
