I'd also be interested in such conceptually organizing exhibit studies.

We are interested in developing a small exhibit in our visitor center that
could provide a framework for our visitors to use in thinking about what
they are going to see in the house (what, how much, the collector, etc.) and
in structuring their experience at our site (which includes a historic house
exhibiting a decorative arts collection, gardens, and temporary exhibition
space).
