Exhibit Design & Fabrication Services

Carnegie Science Center offers exhibit design and fabrication services to fit any need. Whether you need a few exhibits from our catalog of favorites, a signature new creation, or a gallery filled with unique and engaging interactives, our talented team can help.

We provide planning services, custom exhibit design and development, and quality fabrication services to meet your mission—and your budget! Connect with us to request a consultation or to see other exhibits available for fabrication to fit with an existing design. We can’t wait to meet yinz!

Exhibit Catalog

Our library of exhibits available for production span a range of science content topics ranging anywhere from sound and light to the physics of flight to energy transfer.

Our exhibit styles range from electricity-free mechanical interactives to multimedia experiences. With over half a million visitors per year, our exhibits have been field-tested by millions of hands! We would love to reproduce some of our best pieces for your institution—either as originally designed or modified to fit any look or theme.

Master Planning

The expertise that makes Carnegie Science Center successful can be applied directly to your projects, whether it be individual exhibits or full exhibitions. Our services include everything from guided brainstorming, exhibition concept design, content organization planning and development, interactive text writing, and production. We can also produce concept packages that can help showcase your ideas for potential funders. Let us turn your ideas into a unified, relevant, engaging, and immersive exhibit experience!

Design & Fabrication

Our design team can work with everything from a casual sketch through isometric and 3D imaging to create the final fabrication shop drawings for your piece. Our design capability ranges from simple mechanical interactives to the engineering of complex electromechanical systems.

For new exhibits, a prototype is almost always constructed to evaluate visitor interaction, engineering issues, ADA compliance, and design feasibility. Our team can also provide full graphics and text panel production services based on your content and exhibition design style or one recommended by us. We also design and fabricate exhibitions to be nearly indestructible, using quality materials available and with multiple safety features built in.
