Science Museum - Launch Pad

Launch Pad is the most visited gallery in the Science Museum and offers a real hands-on way to experience a variety of mechanical and scientific activities. Children can play with a two way mirror, check out electrical currents, spin on a platform to experience centrifugal force, walk along a suspension bridge, pump water into a high level cistern, move grain around a circuit with cogs, wheels and pulleys and project their voice across the gallery with giant sound dishes.

We were the lead consultants and designed the layout, display structures, interiors, display cases and the outward appearance of the interactive exhibits.

Science Museum – Space Gallery

The gallery was created to update the story of space exploration including the latest technical development in long distance space probes. A circular imprint in the floor traces out the diameter of an Apollo rocket with an actual propulsion unit displayed nearby. Large space vehicles previously held in storage were put on display for the first time, suspended from the upper floor slab in a setting which was designed to represent a space highway. A new interactive mission control centre with roll playing activities such as ‘launch a rocket’ were formed in the centre of the gallery.

London Transport Museum

As part of the refurbishment programme for the London Transport Museum, Minale Tattersfield was asked to design a new identity and signage. The idea was to create an identity that would evoke the classic London Transport identity and commemorate the relationship between a great urban transport system and the people using it – past, present and future.

The symbol that we designed showed three different ages of London Transport travel. From a top hatted Victorian gentleman to a modern passenger, speed is communicated through movement lines which increase through the ages. We also designed a suite of literature and produced a guidelines manual to ensure the identity was applied correctly and consistently throughout.
