How it will work:

Setup
After arrival, the project, daily objectives, and tasks will be explained in detail. The delivered exhibits will then be sorted and transported into the exhibition rooms. Next, the exhibits will be assigned to the available spaces and prepared for installation. Installing the exhibits is the main task. Once completed, the focus shifts to final adjustments: distributing additional information and decorative materials, cleaning the exhibits, adjusting the lighting, and presenting the exhibition as perfectly as possible.

Dismantling
After arrival, the exhibits as well as decorative and informational materials will be taken down, sorted, packed, and prepared for transport. In addition, minor repair work on the walls will be carried out.
