CROATIAN NATIONAL BANK
Moneterra – The Money Museum of the Croatian National Bank.

We implemented the "turnkey" principle to build a comprehensive information and education center for the CNB (Croatian National Bank), spanning an area of 828 m². In only seven months, we achieved several key tasks: we developed a visual identity, designed the architectural layout of the space, created all content and exhibits, installed the necessary equipment, and completed all construction work.

Summary

We implemented the “turnkey” principle to build a comprehensive information and education center for the CNB (Croatian National Bank), spanning an area of 828 m². In only seven months, we achieved several key tasks: we developed a visual identity, designed the architectural layout of the space, created all content and exhibits, installed the necessary equipment, and completed all construction work.

Challenge

We adjusted the 45 themes of the museum’s permanent exhibition to ensure that the content and interpretation were suitable for all age groups, from preschoolers to senior citizens. Additionally, we economically modified the standard balance between digital and interactive exhibits to provide visitors with an optimal experience.  

Solution

We have assembled an exceptional community of six companies, comprising approximately 200 experts from various fields, including architecture, product design, audio-visual communications, engineering, programming, economics, museology, behavioral economics, and ICT. We are working to create Moneterra, a premier institution promoting financial literacy.
