  6. Inspired by the Exploratorium in San Francisco a hands-on Exhibition was built up starting with 300 m2 in 1984. 1990 the growing exhibition moved into a separate building.

  7. Since then the Spectrum was continuously built up by Otto Lührs and an inhouse team and has now about 250 exhibits on 1400 m2.

  8. The growth of the exhibition led to a variety of different approaches in displaying contents and exhibits.

  28. Opportunitiesandrisks • Renewing is a unique chance to rethink your identity and brand. • A complete renewal will have more impact, than a subsequent one – but when a temporary closure is necessary you might loose audiences. • Shaping the project is a risk: How fundamental are the changes you can afford? The project might get bigger in the process than you originally thought. • When you work with an existing building, this will be the biggest risk for your time an budget. There is always something you didn‘t know before …

  29. Recommendations • Take your time to set up the project carefully at the beginning and think about your priorities. What is most important? You might not be able to match all of your goals. • An important issue are internal ressources, as your staff already has a job. When thinking about funding also plan your internal ressources, you might need additional staff. • Whatever you do it will reshape the identity of your institution. Be aware that this process is time consuming an involves your whole team. It‘s not „only“ about design and content, ist about finding out, what you really want.

  30. Thank you!
