Brighton is like a home away from home and will always be a big part of my late teens and early 20s. I am grateful for the support and opportunities the university itself has given me and for the people I have met here.

As part of this year’s graduate summer shows, we are chatting with some of our final-year students to hear more about the projects they are currently working on.

The Art and Design Summer show features the work of final year students studying architecture, interior architecture, design engineering, sustainable design, interior design, fashion history, product design, and art and design history.

Reimagining museums: interior architecture students create interactive QR code trail

Final-year Interior Architecture students collaborated with Brighton & Hove Museums on a new interactive QR code trail that reshapes how visitors experience and understand museum artefacts. 

Using historical artefacts at Brighton Museum & Art Gallery, our students have created an interactive QR code trail that re-imagines how these objects are presented – offering visitors a fresh way to explore the past and experience history in new, meaningful ways. 

By scanning QR codes on select artefacts, visitors can uncover re-imagined spaces created by students. These spaces reflect the artefacts’ origins and cultural significance, their journey to UK museums, and the voices that have been overlooked. Launching on 29 March and running until 14 May 2025, the trail makes history more interactive, inviting people to question and engage rather than just observe.
