#Snapshot is an interactive photography exhibition in which we applied service design methods to build a personal journey for the visitors. The work is a collaboration between Futurice, The Finnish Museum of Photography, Tampere University and Aalto University. The story of how we designed the exhibition will be presented inside the exhibition itself, at The Finnish Museum of Photography, Kaapelitehdas. Presenters: Anna-Kaisa Rastenberger from the museum and Risto Sarvas from Futurice.

19. Lessons Learned
RE-THINKING THE PURPOSE OF
DESIGN METHODS
In a very complex domain, the design has
to be opened up.
Design methods as binding glue, not only a
solution to a problem.
DESIGN WAY OF TALKING IS
BUILDING
Build it so people really understand it!
CONTENT BEFORE ANYTHING!
Lot of new things were done, but no
compromises on content!
Thank you for your interest. Feel free to enjoy the exhibition now or later.
Still one month here in Helsinki, and then we start the European tour.
Perhaps we get to update it for Helsinki wheN it returns after few years
