Guillermo del Toro: At Home With MonstersArt direction, marketing and multimedia exhibition design for the dark fantasy exhibition and its promotion.
Our museum courted the director for 6 years to trust us with his materials. Through inspired previsualization, we convinced him to greenlight this unconventional exhibition.
The show's debut was an instant hit that organically reached across the globe. The viral groundswell subsequently launched del Toro's Best Director campaign and sweep of the Academy Awards the following year.
