Design Commissions
Maureen Mooren has designed the campaigns, including printed matter, digital materials and banners for projects that comprise multiple exhibitions, such as the Temporary Fashion Museum and Innovation at the World Expo. Together with Christine Alberts, she is also responsible for the design of the institute's corporate communications.
Temporary Fashion Museum
In the _Temporary Fashion Museum_, the primary focus was not on the unique quality of an individual designer or garment but on the underlying structures and strategies of fashion as a system. It explored fashion's various manifestations, from the seductive to the repulsive, from the innovative to the conservative and from the critical to the wasteful. What does fashion look like in 2015? What preoccupies designers today? How do they think about the future? Which issues determine the current developments in fashion? And, above all, what role do consumers play within this global system?
Innovation at the World Expo 1851 - now
In the context of the 34th World Expo opening in Milan this spring, Het Nieuwe Instituut addresses this phenomenon from different perspectives, in three exhibitions: What is the Netherlands?, _GLASS _and Garden of Machines. The recurring question in the programme is: under what conditions is innovation achieved, and what role do designers play within that process?
