Located in New York City, the Morbid Anatomy Museum & Library curates a collection of grotesque artifacts, medical oddities, and historical relics that confront mortality head‑on. Its audience consists of curious explorers who seek the eerie, the shocking, and the scholarly side of humanity’s darker narratives.

Develop a website that educates and astonishes, using high‑contrast X‑ray imagery and vintage textbook graphics to guide users through the collection. The design must balance scholarly authority with a haunting tone, employing red “X” markers and layered visuals to direct attention while preserving an atmosphere of awe‑inducing morbidity.

We adopted a visual language that mimics old medical plates: layered monochrome X‑ray backgrounds, with distressed overlayed focal points, and precise red “X” annotations that act as navigational cues. Header copy mirrors the museum’s clinical yet ominous voice, turning each section into a forensic case file. This approach immerses visitors in a “reveal‑the‑hidden” experience, reinforcing the museum’s mission to educate through shock while maintaining a cohesive, museum‑grade aesthetic across all pages.
