Project: British Science Musuem

The Science Museum in London is one of the United Kingdom’s most renowned cultural landmarks, celebrated for its dedication to showcasing the wonders of scientific innovation, discovery, and history. Situated in South Kensington, at the heart of London’s museum district, the Science Museum draws millions of visitors annually and stands as a cornerstone of Britain’s scientific and cultural heritage. It is part of the wider Science Museum Group, which includes other esteemed institutions such as the National Science and Media Museum in Bradford, the National Railway Museum in York, and the Science and Industry Museum in Manchester.

In 2019, I was privileged to contribute to the museum’s creative vision by developing ideas for product designs based on an upcoming exhibition, intended for merchandising in their iconic gift shop. The Science Museum’s gift shop is renowned for its carefully curated selection of items that reflect the museum’s themes, offering visitors the chance to take home a piece of their experience. My task involved conceptualising merchandise that would capture the essence of the exhibition while appealing to a diverse audience, from science enthusiasts and families to casual visitors. The challenge was to create products that were not only visually compelling but also reflected the spirit of discovery and innovation that defines the Science Museum.
