Old Exhibits Still Have Value
An older interactive may still be loved by visitors even though its computer is obsolete and its screen is dim. Refurbishment can extend its life for far less than a full rebuild.
Options for Older Exhibits
Assess each exhibit honestly. We review them with clients through our exhibit refresh projects.
- Replace the screen — keep the cabinet and interaction
- Upgrade the computer — run the content more reliably
- Rebuild the software — keep the design, change the technology
- Refresh the content — new stories in a trusted format
- Retire it — remove what no longer works

Find the Original Materials
Look for source files, drawings and documentation. If they are missing, the exhibit may need to be rebuilt from scratch.
Check Safety and Accessibility
Older exhibits may not meet current expectations for electrical safety and accessibility. Review them while refurbishing. Agencies helping attractions can talk to us via our partnership programme.
