ExhibiTricks: Green Exhibit Design: An Interview with Tim McNeil
From Paul Orselli's blog:
ExhibiTricks: Green Exhibit Design: An Interview with Tim McNeil:
"I have a top ten list of ways to green an exhibition environment, that are simple and applicable to museums of all sizes and can be implemented with little effort:
1. Improve the energy efficiency of exhibition lighting by installing timers and sensors to manage usage. Install CFL’s when appropriate.
2. Adjust exhibition climate control settings where possible. Do the objects or exhibits need to be that cool or warm?
3. Design modular exhibition components/furniture that can be easily recycled or reused.
4. Practice the 4R’S (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Reinvest). Do more with less.
5. Use low VOC paints.
6. Avoid vinyl based signage products.
7. Print on 100% post-consumer paper using non-petroleum based inks.
8. Use Agri-fiber products such as wheat straw rather than wood based particle boards.
9. Use screws instead of glues.
10. Inform staff, vendors and most importantly visitors about your efforts."
