THE NATIONAL MARITIME MUSEUM

N.O.T. EDUCATION FAIR

 

The brief

Create a simple idea that stands out among the hundreds of booths on the NOT fair.

 

The idea

During an education fair for teachers, we filled our booth with posters apologizing to the teachers on behalf of maritime history.

 

After all, if Holland had never sailed the seas, exploring the thousands of exotic trade routes, teachers wouldn't have to deal with sticky gum, distracting texts, or rubber bands flying across the room. Posters depict famous maritime figures engaged in said naughty behavior.

 

‘We offer, on behalf of the shipping industry, our sincere apologies for importing all those things that make children so troublesome in class.’
