Edmonton: Apollo 17 theatre
TELUS World of Science Edmonton, Ontario has plans to redesign part of its space gallery. Owning a moon rock from Apollo 17 mission drove us to start the design for an “Apollo 17 multi media theatre” together with Cochrane Show Communication from Kingston. More to come soon.
ScienceVillage – Joint Forces
Science Village – Muster the forces of the young and the elderly.
Elderly people and young children have at least two things in common: they both have interests in learning and they both have time to devote to it. Why not join forces and bring them together?
Timmins Science Village and Autumnwood, Mature Lifestyle Communities will do just that – bringing children and seniors together in a new-age multigenerational learning center that will take science and technology education to the next level. Goal: Create a learning environment where seniors and children benefit from each other >>> Use life experience, imagination and enthusiasm to connect people of all ages. Currently we are working to create a stunning ambiance for both groups under one roof. …where they will share and collaborate as they solve engineering challenges, build, innovate and have fun together.
The former St. Mary’s Hospital property, located in the heart of downtown Timmins, will be completely transformed to include retirement residential apartments. The plan include a multigenerational learning center called the Science Village.
The Science Village will be an integral part of the complex leading the way in the development of intergenerational learning and will offer hands on science and technology programs to families, seniors, school age and pre-school children.
The concept is to create a network of programs supported by flexible and cost effective infrastructure. The first step in the Timmins ScienceVillage implementation of this will be to revitalize an existing downtown Timmins storefront location that has been closed for many years. 10.000 square feet of storefront space will be renovated to create an energetic and fast paced active learning environment for schools, families and general public. The Science Village will revitalize the downtown core, becoming an economic solution by supporting diversified businesses.
Science Village Interior Concept
Science Village learning activities will take many forms, workshops, shows, demonstrations, drop-in activities designed to amuse and appeal to diverse audiences. This dynamic interior environment will support delivery of a variety of programs. High class design items from ROSSO, KOZIOL, E15 and EXTREMIS will be used to create the highly flexible space for groups and single visitors of different ages and interests.
Science Village Interior
Design development in progress. The Science Village project will revitalize an existing Downtown Timmins storefront location and turn it into a highly sophisticated “science attraction area”. Restored 19th century copper ceiling meets 21st century design. Approximately 4500 square feet of storefront space will be renovated and fit out to create an energetic and fast paced active learning environment for schools, families and general public.

Entwicklung der Gesamtgestaltung. Das Science Village Projekt wird ein historisches Gebäude mit Ladenfront in der Innenstadt von Timmins in eine ausgeklügelte Begegnungsstätte für Wissenschaft und Kunst verwandeln. Restaurierte Kupfer-Decken aus dem 19. Jahrhundert treffen auf zeitgenössisches Design. Auf ca. 800 sorgfältig renovierten Quadratmetern wird eine dynamisch-aktive Lernumgebung für Schulen und Familien gestaltet.
ScienceSouth – mission accomplished
Science South is now handed over to the client and open to the public. We are still working with the client to help things running > billboards, advertisements, flyers postcards have to be designed.
Together with our partners from ZINC Projects we are in the design development process for the next step of ScienceSouth (see “projects design” category “ScienceSouth Phase III”).

Lynches Official Opening
Lynches River County Park Environmental Discovery Center (EDC) opened Friday Feb. 22, 2008 with praise from the Effingham community, South Carolina business leaders and elected officials.
Plans developed together with ZINC Projects include the Environmental Discovery Center and the Tree Top Canopy Walk. The center also will feature a various educational designed to encourage people to become “Naturalists” as a means to stimulate lifelong learning.

Lynches River County Park Environmental Discovery Center is nestled along the cypress and water tupelo along the scenic Lynches River. It features a canopy walk suspended over the wetlands approaching the river. The 250-squared-meter (2700-sq.-ft.) EDC houses a Nature Lab, Veranda Observatory and Briefing Room. Each is equipped with tools and equipment to facilitate citizen science: the ongoing monitoring of the park ecosystems and environment. EDC Coordinator Teresa Simons commented that “visitors will observe, measure and experience nature for themselves.” The center’s Briefing Room has real time environmental monitoring of soil, air, and water and weather conditions.
The 328-ft. canopy walk is a combination of ground-supported walkway, tree-supported observation platforms and cable-supported bridges, starting from the platform of EDC Veranda Observatory.
Lake City native, national business leader and philanthropist Darla Moore said: “Today, we celebrate the opening of this incredible environmental discovery center right in the middle of our own rural Pee Dee region.” Moore congratulated the EDC Steering Committee for the realization of their vision and commented on the importance of public and private partnerships to enact economic change in the region. She also complimented the architecture and design of the center which re-used siding and flooring from a soon to be destroyed century old tobacco barn.
