The design of the exhibition maintained one of the housing units. It also demolished the interior compartment and the floor of the other unit space. In this latest process, an old pavement was discovered. It was part of a former building, prior to the Palace.
Taking advantage of this situations, this unexpected feature of the Palace was uncovered to the visitor. Through different platforms in wooden plywood, the circulation was made between the level of the palace's floor and the level of the previous building pavement.

The curatorship intended that the exhibition displays should reproduce the echo of graphic and product activism, in the responses to the adversities of the Ibero-American socioeconomic context identified throughout the exhibition contents.
Based on this intention, the project proposed the oblique line as the motto for the exhibition design. This idea was applied to the ramps as a support for the collage of the intervention posters, on the podiums on which the objects are placed and in the lighting design that identifies, in the oblique line, the transition between exhibition platforms.
