We were responsible for assembling and leading the team that transformed 20,000 square feet of empty space into the Beaty Biodiversity Museum, Vancouver’s vibrant, content-rich natural history museum, on a timetable of nine months.
In overseeing all exhibits and programming staff, we directed content development in connection with the researchers at the Biodiversity Research Centre, and ensured exhibits were engaging, age-appropriate, scientifically accurate and, above all, beautiful.
We created the museum’s editorial style guide, copy-edited all exhibit materials, and directly or indirectly supervised 27 people including writers, designers and interpreters, and wrote and designed over 100 display panels.
