Summary/Abstract: In this article the author tries to show the new way to design database visual interfaces, which could be used to present big cultural resources online. I focused especially on different visualization techniques, which create so-called “generous interface”. These kinds of interfaces give users a chance to see representations of a whole collection but also depict the structure of a collection and the relationship between objects. Based on examples I shall explain how a database visual interface could be used to create humanized habitats, which give users a multi-sensual experience and create new possibilities to explore cultural resources.
