This is a creative collaboration with the British Library for three ""Pilot Projects,"" an exciting opportunity to test visitors' reactions to various interpretive concepts in anticipation of the Library's forthcoming extension plans at its iconic St. Pancras site.

The British Library, London, 2022/23/24, temporary structure at the Treasures Gallery.

The first project, "Breathe In, Breathe Out," took visitors on a sensory journey, looking at the positive effects of sound on well-being and relaxation; the sounds are drawn from the Library's collection and encourage listeners to take a deep breath to bring them into the present moment.

The pilot projects are positioned within the British Library's existing permanent galleries, providing a canvas to test novel ideas with the Library's existing audiences. To create a distinct and adaptable space for each of the three test exhibitions, we conceived a flexible framework that establishes a space within a space. This framework allows for an updatable graphic skin and the incorporation of different technologies for each project.

Visitor feedback is at the heart of these experimental projects, collecting data for future development. Visitor feedback is collected through visitor surveys; additionally, at one end of the structure, a feedback station is positioned where visitors can leave thoughts and observations.

The structure has openings on three sides, allowing a seamless flow of visitors in and out. These openings create intriguing sight lines into the space that act as attractors and invitations to explore the content.

The inner walls are lined with cork to help create an acoustically balanced environment. This material change also sets the interior apart from the rest of the gallery and creates a relaxing, natural, and calming atmosphere.
