reimagining

experience design

Public spaces have the power to bring people together. That’s why our team puts people first in everything we do. By prioritizing community and inclusion in each stage of the design process, our team creates human-centered environments infused with the potential to connect and transform.

Experience design that puts people first.

What We Do

We know exhibit design, installation, and operations. As a team of professionals with experience in architecture, education, world-class museums and theme parks, we understand permanent and temporary experiences and the resources required to facilitate that flexibility.  More importantly, we believe in experience design that puts people first.

  • Translating the big idea to groups of various abilities, ages, and demographics is at the core of experience design.  Our team uses research, community outreach, and inclusive interactivity strategies to develop the experience concept.

  • We lean on our architectural background to physically map the story, develop supporting drawings, and apply museum standards for lighting, messaging, signage, conservation, and case design. Coming from the museum world, we understand the importance of balancing design with operations, maintenance, durability, and aesthetics.

  • We are passionate about cultivating positive learning experiences for all backgrounds, ages, and abilities. Through Universal Design for Learning strategies, we build personally meaningful pathways for individuals to create, reflect, share, and connect.

  • How will the story be spread and supported during the life of the exhibition?  Translating educational material for those who will facilitate and support the exhibition is key to a successful experience.  And finally, evaluation criteria, developed at the onset of the design, is important to uncover the highs and lows of the experience to create opportunities for subsequent installations.

Who We Are

We are a creative design agency and consultancy that educates, entertains, and inspires through exhibit and experience design.

Whether in a permanent or temporary exhibition space, there are curated stories to tell about an art collection, a moment in time, a particular place, or an alternate universe.

At Golden Egg Creative, we bring those stories to life. We work with cultural spaces ranging from libraries to galleries and beyond with a people-first approach.

Our Values Inform Our Work

Empathy

We use a human-centered approach in every stage of our process.

Equity

We believe people of all backgrounds and abilities should be able to access and enjoy our designs.

Community

We center community needs to build experiences and spaces that foster social connection.

Why “Golden Egg”?

The name Golden Egg refers to a folktale about a goose that lays glittering, golden eggs. For us, the golden egg is a symbol of possibility, prosperity, and wonder. We believe that when one makes space for the unexpected, they are often met with great reward. 

Let’s work together to incubate your next golden egg.
