The main leitmotif of the design is a simply and cleanly appearing design that allows both the bodywork creations and the essence of the communicated information to stand out. It does not disrupt the visitor's perception of the space and the exhibits on display and facilitates the memorization of individual parts of the exhibition. It leaves a coherent impression on the visitor.

The exhibition elements are effectively divided into two parts according to the exhibition spaces. The pedestals under the exhibits of historic cars are in the freely open space of the extension. These are simple rectangles with rounded corners, backlit from below around the entire perimeter. The second part consists of exhibition blocks in the space of the historical prison. Opposite each entrance to the cell is a panel with the main text information, and in the middle of the cell stands an exhibition block, whether it is a pedestal, a board, or a cabinet. The exhibition blocks serve as carriers of LCD monitors, supplementary text information, and other visual media.

The graphic solution of the exhibition aims to present information to visitors of all ages in an accessible manner. With its almost minimalist expression, it seeks to support the architectural intention - not to disrupt the perception of space and exhibits. To differentiate the two basic themes of the exhibition, two colors were chosen - orange and blue, which were commonly used in graphic design in the 1930s. A prominent identifying graphic element is the newly created logo of the Museum of Czech Car Bodywork, which responds with its form to the curves from the sketches of J. Sodomka the younger. For the typesetting of all texts, the Default font was chosen for its "technical" expression, which resonates appropriately with the thematic focus of the exhibition.

The actual application of graphic design in the exhibition is executed through inkjet printing on adhesive vinyl with lamination, which is placed on MDF panels or directly on the walls in the exhibition space. Additionally, in smaller scope, the following are utilized: cut graphics, inkjet printing on adhesive vinyl on forex boards, cut logos from styrodur, and spray paint on walls.
