HI all you exhibition designers:

Have a look at the work of Morag Myerscough. A really individual and inspirational graphic designer who does a lot of exhibition design for clients like the design museum often on very minimal budgets. She has a very small studio in London, usually just her and a couple of graduate interns. She intentionally keeps it that way, but it doesn’t stop her from thinking big and bold. See her work here:
