About the Museum of Ice Cream

The Museum of Ice Cream is a Figure8 brand that transforms concepts and dreams into spaces that provoke imagination and creativity. MOIC is designed to be a culturally inclusive environment and community, inspiring human connection and imagination through the universal power of ice cream.

Problem

The Museum of Ice Cream lacks a navigation system, making it hard for people to know where they are going or what they are looking at. In addition, each exhibit lacks any descriptions or inspirations of how these pieces came to be. It creates a disconnect between the viewer and the exhibit, not releasing its true potential. Along with the coronavirus pandemic precautions, some are afraid to interact or eat anything in the museum.

Solution

An application that users can download to enhance their experience. The app will enhance the idea of bringing the dream alive. It will also help users navigate through the museum better and tell them more about what they’re looking at. The app will make covid precautions easier as well.
