Virtual exhibition space
The Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen is among the most important museums of modern and contemporary art in Europe. With the “Collection Online,” the institution has created a digital platform that combines international accessibility, scholarly research, and the visual presence of the collection. Stan Hema was commissioned with the concept development, UX/UI design, and technical support for the new online collection. The goal was to develop an application that equally meets the needs of three target groups: professionals with research interests, museum visitors, and a culturally engaged public. A particular focus was placed on developing intuitive search and filter functionalities, as well as an accessible design system that aligns consistently with the Kunstsammlung’s existing corporate design.
