Isometric Studios is aiming to help cultural institutions open up in a post-COVID-19 world with a museum toolkit. Some of the suggestions include a Floor Demarcation System, signage that will encourage people to be mindful of physical distancing, Hallway, Stair, and Elevator Circulation, and more. All measures are presented with visual diagrams. The resource is aptly titled ' Toolkit for Museum Reopening: Design Strategies and Considerations."
Isometric Studios has created the museum toolkit to propose "a foundation for museums to continue to fulfill [their] critical mission"—that is, to educate the public and "participate in the ongoing fight for justice." The visuals include direction for both outdoor and indoor spaces. It also boasts some tips on how to handle and execute virtual showcases that are impactful.
