Traditional exhibition deign method and conceptsare also influenced by the multimedia technology.Currently in China, the multimedia exhibition design is still in its infancy and thetechnology is imperfect. The combination of technology and art also need a run-in period.Times change which forces the designers to constantly study and improve the design conceptin order to do innovation. Furthermore, the designers need to focus on the level of training,strengthening in-depth understanding of the technical aspects, and improve their overallliteracy.This article mentions the development history of exhibition design and multimediatechnologies by the basic concept. Through the combination idea which indicates theimportant influence of multimedia technology in conjunction with the exhibition designproduced for display design. In the actual case of the research process, it summarizes many issues of the combination of exhibition design and multimedia technologies. It also point outthe detailed creative process of a multimedia exhibition in galleries, museums and other largeexhibition. In the meantime, it recommends the new-ages design method under the designperspective. The end of the thesis analyze the ‘roadmap’ of the future development ofexhibition design under than multimedia technology, hoping it will benefit the future designart and inspire the creation.
