Horrible Histories® Blitzed Brits

Working with Scholastic Children’s Books, publisher of the Horrible Histories®, we developed a highly experiential, engaging and interactive exhibition on the theme of the Second World War Blitz to mark the 75th anniversary of the War. The exhibition, at the Imperial War Museum North, combined personal stories and displayed over 200 objects, photographs, art works, film and sound recordings to reveal how the Blitz brought the War to the doorsteps of Britain. Using the visual style of the Horrible Histories® brand we created a series of three-dimensional immersive environments to lead visitors on a physical journey through the Blitz.

Bonnie Prince Charlie & the Jacobites

Design of major exhibition at the National Museum of Scotland, exploring the real story and cultural heritage of Prince Charles Edward Stuart and the rise and fall of the Jacobites – Am Prionnsa Teàrlach agus na Seumasaich. The exhibition immersed visitors in the world of the Royal House of Stuart, a dynasty divided into two courts by religion, politics and war, each fighting for the throne of the three kingdoms of Scotland, England and Ireland. Interpretation explored how four Jacobite kings became pawns in a much wider European political game and followed the Jacobites’ fight to regain their lost kingdoms. We displayed exquisite objects, and incorporated film, music and digital interactives to bring the events of this turbulent period in European history to life. Multi-lingual interpretation was provided in Gaelic and English.
