About Takanabe Ninomaru Historikal na Museo
Ang Takanabe Historical Museum, na itinatag noong 1986, ay muling binuoin upang tugunan ang bumababang pakikipag-ugnayan ng mga bisita dahil sa mga lipas na eksibisyon. Ang muling pagdidisenyo ay yumakap sa JIN, ang pilosopiya ng kabutihan, na nag-transform dito bilang sentro ng kultura at edukasyon na nagpapalakas ng pagmamalaki sa pamayanan. Sa pamamagitan ng visual storytelling at spatial design, ang renewal ay nagdulot ng tematikong kurasiyon, immersive na mga eksibisyon, at mga patong-patong na acrylic panel na sumasagisag sa pagpapatuloy ng kasaysayan. Muling pinangalanang NINOMARU History Museum, ito ay ngayon ay nagsisilbi bilang interactive na espasyo kung saan ang pamana, edukasyon, at komunidad ay nagkakakonekta.

- Production Technology
- This exhibition uses graphic and spatial design to make history visually engaging. The entrance features a concept display with a tagline, while the first exhibition room includes zoning signs with symbolic designs. The second exhibition presents Takanabe Domain's history, the Meirindo school, and the 7th lord Akizuki Taneshige's SDGs-related policies. At the center, acrylic panels display successive lords and their policies, with a red gradient symbolizing historical continuity.
- Design Challenge
- The biggest challenge of this project was creating an engaging exhibition with limited historical materials and budget. From a historical and social perspective, extensive document research and discussions with experts were conducted to highlight the region's uniqueness, shaping the exhibition narrative around the culture of human development. As large-scale renovations were not feasible, we utilized graphic and spatial design to create a visually compelling and immersive exhibition.
- Research
- This study aimed to revitalize a historical museum through design and narrative. The objective was to enhance visitor engagement, promote cultural heritage preservation, and foster civic pride. The methodology included comparative studies of museums and interviews with historians. We introduced content curation and visual solutions. By highlighting the region's unique history of human development, we proposed a narrative-driven exhibition design, enhancing historical understanding.
- Inspiration
- This project was inspired by the need to revitalize a declining local region by restoring its historical museum. Established in 1986 under the Akizuki domain, the museum's outdated exhibits led to a decline in visitor engagement. With the town's rich history in education and culture, revitalizing its significance was crucial. The goal was to transform the museum into a cultural hub where people can learn, connect, and take pride in their heritage and traditions.
- Project Duration
- The project began in autumn 2023 in Miyazaki, Japana and finished in December 2024.
- Operation Flow
- This exhibition utilizes visual storytelling to help visitors intuitively understand the region's history. The layout is designed for a sequential experience, guiding visitors through zoned spaces categorized by theme and era, ensuring a natural flow of information. The design creates an immersive experience where history is learned through narratives, while layered acrylic panels symbolize temporal connections, resulting in a visually engaging and easily comprehensible exhibition.
