Nissen Richards Studio has designed its first exhibition for The Sainsbury Centre in Norwich. Why Can’t We Stop Killing Each Other?’ explores the fundamental question of why humans are led to kill and considers culture that wrestles with this notion, asking if creative thinkers can use empathy to create change and encourage people to choose hope over violence.

Nissen Richards Studio created the permanent exhibition and graphic design, branding, wayfinding and shop design for Shoemakers Museum, a brand-new visitor destination in the heart of Somerset. The practice was also the museum’s interpretation specialist, creating the text for the exhibition’s content, in close collaboration with the curatorial team. The museum was created to celebrate 200 years of shoemaking by Clarks and is located in Street, the village where the company was first formed.
