LOLA, Museum Lolland-Falster
An exhibition taking us on an exciting journey of Lola, a girl that used to live and grow up on Lolland some 6000 years ago, was an amazing project to work on.
The Museum of Lolland-Falster came to us with the request to help capture her daily journey during the Stone Age and reveal it to the museum visitors as an exciting story, presented with the help of custom-made black plinths and acrylic display cases. We also provided the customized LED lighting for the displays.
The acrylic display cases were meant to contain a unique collection of archeological finds, which have been excavated during the archeological investigations necessary prior to building the Fehmarn belt tunnel, Denmark’s largest infrastructure project and the world’s largest immersed tunnel.
It is very rare to find items and materials so well-preserved from the stone age. Many of the finds from these excavations are completely unique and can only be experienced at Museum Lolland-Falster.
Since the artifacts that old are very sensitive to any outgassing of the materials, we had to choose a material that would not outgas inside the acrylic display cases and would still be feasible within the budget that we were given. We made the plinths out of black MDF, but used black matt acrylic tops inside the displays to cover the tops of the plinths, since acryl combines sustainability (made of fully recycled and recyclable material) with 0 outgassing. That way, the artifacts did not come in contact with MDF.
We are happy to have been part of making LOLA a breathtaking journey into the Stone Age for adults and children alike, and can proudly name Museum Lolland-Falster as one of our devoted customers.
