Going underground...

Work at the National Coal Mining museum is progressing well. It's fascinating to get a glimpse of a miner's life, working alongside the museum's dedicated group of ex- miners. The jokes are funny and the stories are gripping.

Bones of Oak & Iron

We’ve just completed the HMS Victory 'Bones of Oak & Iron' exhibition. When the National Museum of the Royal Navy asked EKDesign to design & build a new exhibition to mark the restoration of Nelson’s flagship, we were delighted to join the team - and what a team. From concept to completion in just 12 weeks.

Best in Show

We were really chuffed to win best stand design at the London Museum Association show. It was a great show and it felt good to connect with the rest of the industry. We saw some old friends, made some new and had a laugh.

True Craftsmanship

This website is just one of many 'expressions' of our new brand (beautifully brought to life by our friends at Arris). What we love about it is that it's not glossy marketing flimflam - it's us. It truly represents who we are, right down to our handmade business cards. And yes, they are real wood.

A Royal Event

It's not everyday you get royalty visiting one of your projects, but shortly after it's completion, the Duke of Edinburgh officially opened the four new galleries and café (featuring our uniquely crafted displays) at Plymouth City Museum and Art Gallery. He was said to be 'very impressed' with what he saw.
