Research on the application of Narratology in the design of Interactive Exhibition space

Abstract

New media has changed the previous exhibition methods under the background of the experience era and digital media technology development. Many interactive exhibitions Space different from traditional exhibition Spaces appear. The behavior mode of the audience participating in the exhibition space has also undergone significant changes. The exhibition design’s focus has shifted from the simple exhibition items to the comprehensive perception brought by creating the space atmosphere and the interactive experience between the audience and the exhibition items. By introducing the space, narration, and structure in narratology into exhibition space, we are trying to turn the single space experience into a comprehensive experience with narrative structure and mode. This paper will take narratology as the theoretical basis and combine it with relevant design cases to study and analyze interactive exhibition space’s mode and characteristics. From the perspective of narratology, designing an interactive exhibition space with more experiential value for experiencers is discussed.
