Scotland Can Make It! 2012

Back to Projects.

7 SEPTEMBER 2012 – 13 JANUARY 2013

Exhibition at The People's Palace and Winter Gardens, Glasgow Green, Glasgow, G40 1AT

Scotland Can Make It! is an exciting project to commission a series of six unique souvenirs inspired by London 2012 and Glasgow 2014, designed and manufactured entirely in Scotland.

In 2012 the souvenir prototypes were presented as part of a special exhibition at The People's Palace museum in Glasgow.

Temporarily included within the permanent collection of the People’s Palace, the Scotland Can Make It! exhibition documented the development of the Scotland Can Make It! souvenir designs, drawing attention to the key processes and relationships that led to their realisation. Within a series of free standing ‘shop window displays’, designed by Graphical House with Steff Norwood, and through a specially commissioned film, by Reset Films, the products were presented within the exhibition in a way that brought together the studio, the factory, the museum and the shop, in sequence, layering ideas, methods and ways of making.

The souvenirs will be available to buy in 2014. For more information about the project please visit:
