Overview

Hegyvidéki Helytörténeti Gyűjtemény, as a decisive historical institution of Budapest XII. district, created one of the most progressive exhibition of 2021: TURUL. The curator team led by Krisztián Ungváry, was able to communicate and present a highly divisive topic without value judgement

ONION got the exciting task to design the delivery of this topic in a worthy but progressive way.

We created the overall design and concept of the exhibition. Graphics, displays, special installations and wayfinding elements.

Modular branding

Modular branding and design. We created a design framework that enabled us to distinguish the historical eras still creating a cohesive look.

Unique display solutions

We not only designed new display solutions, but also created a very special wooden element with glowing dots representing the TURUL statues all around the historical Hungarian map.

In the centre of the exhibition we placed a timetable that adapted to the slope of the room.

From this table, special wayfinding elements led to the walls to give more information about the given era.

Turul too real
