Eden In Iraq is an interdisciplinary, environmental art and design exhibition tracing the evolution of the wastewater remediation project in the marshes of southern Iraq near the historic site of the Garden of Eden. The researchers, artists and designers involved in this project have used environmental art, design, and wastewater to create a restorative wastewater garden for cultural memory, education, and shared social space. Drawing on Islamic and Mesopotamian traditions originating in this historically and symbolically charged region, the Eden in Iraq Waste Water Garden is designed to be a syncretic container for ecological and cultural restoration.
We were tasked to create the branding and design of this exhibition, held at National Design Centre Singapore which showcases design/engineering drawings, models, photo & video documentary which helps visitors understand the tremendous effort gone into this process, as well as the rich history of the Marshes and its People.

The structure of the exhibition is centred around three sections, marked by three sets of totems that were inspired by a grid of islamic patterns.
Print collaterals provides viewers a peak into the beautiful marshes when unopened.
