We were tasked with the “Rebellious Retail” project by the Castle
Transformation project team. The project asked us to use objects featured in
the castle’s new Rebellion galleries as inspiration for the design and
prototyping of items suitable for sale in the castle shop.
As part of the project we met with
existing NCMG staff such as the Design Manager, Commercial and Operations
Manager, Retail Buyer etc. to gain insight into the considerations required
when developing gift shop products.
An initial
planning session was held with the group in August 2017 to gage what the group
wanted to gain from the project and to work with them to come up with a project
timeline that reflected their interests and approach.
