DaeWha Kang Design has designed the exhibition for In Bloom: How Plants Changed the World at Oxford’s Ashmolean Museum, chosen as an Editor’s Pick for May 2026 by Wallpaper* Magazine.

In Bloom was the first Ashmolean exhibition to consider sustainability from conception to delivery. 92% of the works come from the Southeast of England. DaeWha Kang Design was able to reuse 87% of showcases while reclaiming and reusing 82% of partitioning from the previous exhibition. New elements of the galleries are made from lightweight fabric, further reducing environmental impacts.
