Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams

A display deck with a large, angled triangular platform with costumed mannequins and a projection of clouds on top of it, part of the Brooklyn Museum's temporary exhibition, Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams.

When the Brooklyn Museum hosted the traveling exhibition Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams, all exhibition architecture had to stand freely, without any tiebacks to the museum's historic Beaux-Arts interiors. 


Hudson Scenic Studios engineered, fabricated, and installed 20 unique standalone decks and podiums throughout the galleries, along with a 45-foot-wide, 30-foot-tall self-supporting showcase structure with integrated light boxes, all while working closely with production partner ShowFab to keep every piece aligned with the museum and exhibition designer's vision.
