Labyrinthia – Drents Museum

NorthernLight

Exhibition | Spatial

Labyrinthia, the completely new collection presentation at the Drents Museum, offers a magical journey through the iconic stories of Drenthe. NorthernLight was responsible for the spatial, visual and experience design of fifteen enchanting rooms, the welcome area, as well as the magical hallways. In Labyrinthia, archaeology, art and history come together and all your senses are stimulated. 

The design offers a unique experience in every room. Central themes such as “What makes us human?”, “How far would you go for your ideals?”, and “What would you do if you were threatened?” connect the present with the past, always keeping the visitor at the heart of the experience. Each room’s atmosphere is carefully designed, intertwining historical contexts with modern elements.

In Labyrinthia, iconic stories come to life. Go on a mammoth hunt, see through the eyes of Vincent van Gogh, or paddle through the ancient peat landscape. Each room offers a multisensory experience where you can not only see but also touch, smell, and feel. In each room, you will enter a completely different world and find yourself immersed in the story.
