With the spring bulbs blooming and some of our own over-winter projects coming into fruition, we thought it was high-time we shared with you some of our newest work, all of which is open to visitors over the 2017 Easter Holidays.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

St Augustine’s Abbey, Canterbury – English Heritage<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Last weekend saw the launch of new interpretation at St Augustine’s Abbey in Canterbury. English Heritage commissioned us to design a trail and other fun and games to help interpret this UNESCO world heritage site. Visitors of all ages can now follow in the footsteps of Brother Goscelyn\u00a0to explore the museum and Abbey Ruins, and other activities include a ‘Monk Name Generator’ and a ‘Snakes and Abbots’\u00a0game where you race to become Abbot of the Abbey.<\/p>\n

The new trail for St Augustine’s Abbey comes sown into a monk’s habit. Habits come in adult sizes too, so there’s dress-up fun for all the family (sorry….!)<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

Langham Dome, Langham\u00a0– North Norfolk Historic Building’s Trust<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

A little closer to home, we installed two new touch-screens at Langham Dome ready for their Easter opening. The first screen, a World War Two\u00a0Slang Quiz, tests visitors on their slang-knowledge and highlights\u00a0the black humour that helped personnel at RAF Langham keep going during wartime. Using\u00a0archive photos of airmen\u00a0stationed there, it gives explanations of slang terms, usually irreverent, and each correct answer sees you rise up through the RAF ranks. The second touch-screen is a\u00a0timeline exploring the squadrons that were based at RAF Langham during its operation.<\/p>\n

A question from the Langham Dome Slang Quiz. Get it right, old chap? <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

Sheringham Park, Sheringham – National Trust<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Finally, we worked on an update at Sheringham Park\u00a0Visitor Centre for the 2017 season. The<\/span> new exhibition ‘The Art of Nature’\u00a0looks at the view that\u00a0famous landscape designer Humphrey Repton was trying to achieve through the window of Sheringham Hall.\u00a0The exhibition space reflects the interior of a grand drawing room with a timeline of events presented as a gallery of framed pictures.\u00a0The current view from the hall (<\/span>which is not open to the public)<\/span> is compared and\u00a0<\/span>contrasted with Repton’s original design.<\/p>\n

We’ll be publishing cases studies of these projects on our website soon, but if you can’t wait, why not call in for a visit!<\/p>\n
