The designed layout consists of three devices that mark the three thematic areas of the exhibition: memory as moon, memory as organised matter and memory as play.
The devices, within the gallery, are 'triggers': objects that separate, delineating specific thematic niches, but at the same time relate. The displays create intimate zones but, thanks to a series of openings, soft geometries and the use of colour, maintain permeability between spaces and a link to the overall theme of the exhibition, memory.
The colour palette chosen for the exhibition brings us back to the theme of the exhibition, memory. This cognitive function is the process of encoding, storing, consolidating and retrieving information and experiences derived from the environment and thinking. We have chosen cool, calming, delicate colours: three tones in continuity, starting with green, moving on to green-blue and arriving at light blue, which favour concentration, seeking to prepare an environment that can thus facilitate the creation of memories and learning.
