An Interactive Children\u2019s Gallery<\/em> In San Francisco by Yves B\u00e9har<\/em> \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0In an attempt to promote creativity among children,\u00a0Yves B\u00e9har\u00a0has created an interactive installation in the\u00a0Herzog and De Meuron De Young museum in San Francisco.\u00a0designed by B\u00e9har\u2019s Fuseproject,\u00a0the de youngsters studio\u00a0features five immersive activity stations that delve into fundamental art concepts: colour, composition, shape and form, texture, and sculpture. Using examples from the collections of the de Young Museum,\u00a0the space hopes to provide tools for understanding the unique role that visual arts play in fostering children\u2019s innate curiosity.<\/p>\n

The narrow space is designed as a single structure made of five wooden cubes, each cube dedicated to one focused creative learning principle. The 10\u2019x10\u2032 sized spaces are designed to isolate the experience whilst offering transition and discovery through fabric strips and large circular projection screens. The periphery walls are painted in a blue shade, with displays on samsung\u2019s the frame that brand and guide each module experience. Unique signage designed by the\u00a0Fuseproject<\/a>\u00a0brand team reinforces the spirit of the space with the de youngster logo, an abstraction of the structure and colorful forms within it.<\/p>\n

Space leverages technology throughout to prompt exploration, curiosity, and discovery, with\u00a0each component carefully designed to create various open-ended outcomes. While one employs touch sensors that allow for color mixing on a wall-like surface, another uses cameras that let children experiment with composition before virtually placing their creations within the galleries of the\u00a0De Young Museum<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In the shape-and-form activity, children are prompted to work together to see how many shapes can be made with the human body.\u00a0The movements are then captured in a activated surface to create intersecting silhouettes that, when overlapped, reveal details from recognizable objects in FAMSF collections. Meanwhile, texture is discovered through interactive screens that mimic physical, textured tiles from the museum\u2019s archives. Finally, young sculptors can create their own works of art using custom-designed magnetized blocks, before placing their newly created sculptures in locations in and around the De Young using an augmented-reality platform.<\/p>\n
