With DiMi visitors of all ages and backgrounds have a simple and intuitive way to peer into the microworld! Robust design and simple interfaces make it a perfect fit for all public spaces with high visitor traffic and restricted supervision such as Museums, Science Centers, Children’s Museums and Visitor Centers.
In April 2019 we were entrusted with the conceptual re-design of the museum‘s GAIA exhibition. This contract was followed by the order to design and build the this new gallery, now renamed ΚΛΙΜΑΤΙΚΗ ΑΛΛΑΓΗ ΚΑΙ ΕΜΕΙΣ (lit. Climate Change and Us). The exhibition displays 19 interactives covering several themes related to climate change on both a global and a personal scale. The topics are Consum and Waste, Energy Consumption, Transport, Food Production, Water Use, and Living. Climate Change and Us was officially opened in April 2022.
After our work for the Cell Lab back in 2005 we were commissioned with its redesign, renovation and remanufacturing in October 2020. As far as possible, old parts and exhibits were reused in the new furniture. The Cell Lab allows the handling of real laboratory equipment and gives an insight into the work of a modern laboratory - it was reopened to the public in mid-November 2021.

Following our collaborations for H2Oh! and All About You! we were again contracted by the museum to work together with the in-house design team to develop and fabricate exhibits for STEAM PARK.
Achievements in science and art start with the same spark: wonder. When the AAHOM asked a team of Toyota staff what led them to become an engineer, scientist or researcher, each pointed to a moment of childhood wonder as the spark of curiosity that blossomed into a career. These same catalysts to innovation now have a new place to work their magic at AAHOM.
In October 2019 we were awarded by Design and Production Inc. the fabrication contract for the GO and Water exhibitions for Danville Science Center, which included interactive engineering, exhibit development, prototyping, software engineering, content and media development and final graphic design.
From the smallest drop of water to terrifying tsunamis, the Geo’Dynamic! exhibition takes you on an exciting journey of discovery through the meteorological and geophysical phenomena that take place within and on the surface of our Earth. In this new space, designed to look like an Earth observation station, explore, discover, play with, experience and feel: rain, storms, clouds, earthquakes and the wind.
We were entrusted with the design and build of interactives for Geo'Dynamic ! .

In May 2020 we were contracted to design and build 27 interactive exhibits for Explore! the centre‘s new exhibition on approx. 540 m² of their first floor. Explore! places visitors at the heart of the experience, using a design and interpretation philosophy that promotes the centre’s approach to accessible science communication. The exhibition celebrates the wonder and beauty of science around us. It uses exemplar phenomena-based exhibits to develop the scientist in all of us Explorers, Facilitators and Experience Seekers.
CONNECT is Dundee Science Centre‘s redevelopment project to update the ground floor of the centre, bringing in three new exhibition zones and making the centre more accessible to all. Themes in the exhibitions address key topics such as sustainability and support to inspire and develop the workforce of the future.
After our first collaboration with Pavilhão do Conhecimento - Ciência Viva for VIRAL - A Contagious Experience back in 2015 we were now entrusted with the design engineering and fabrication of Água - uma exposição sem filtro (lit. Water - An unfiltered exhibition).
In August 2019 we were contracted to conceptually design, develop and fabricate the interactive gallery for Альметрика Интерактивный центр - Almetrika Interactive Centre. Almetrika invites to fascinating scientific and educational tours. One can not only watch and listen, but also perform experiments and experiences by oneself at the interactive equipment. 55 state-of-the-art exhibits help to visualise complex physical concepts such as time, mass, length, electricity, light, temperature, matter and energy.
