Archaeological News 2022

---

As a working student at the information design agency Science Communication Lab I get the chance to be a part of fascinating projects. Since 2016 my colleagues have been doing the layout for the annually published Archaeological News, a journal about the archaeological excavations and events in Schleswig-Holstein. The 2022 edition featured the story of the discovery and excavation of three historical shipwrecks on Süderoogsand, in the North Sea.

For this article my team decided to go a step further than just the printed journal and create a mobile website as an extension, to really get a feeling for the discovery.

Under supervision of the leading Archaeologist, Dr. Daniel Zwick, who supplied me with blueprints and helpful insight, I was tasked with modelling a 3D reconstruction of the excavated ship that was later used to create the interactive visualisation on the website.

You can check out the finished product here, and explore the ship in your own time!
