Bluewater Studio

Bluewater Studio worked closely with the Forest County Potawatomi Community to develop and produce this stunning exhibit within a unique 12-sided gallery. Acclaimed by the community and visitors alike, this exhibit features a magnificent range of physical elements, hands-on interactives, artifact cases, wall graphics, and multiple media experiences, including adedicated theatre space. This is representative of a growing body of indigenous museum projects led by Bluewater Studio and developed in collaboration with our partners at Lord Cultural Resources and WeatherstonBruer Associates. #bluewaterstudio #museumdesign #exhibitdesign #indigenousmuseum #culturalmuseum #culturalexhibit #designbuild

Sometimes, increasing visitor engagement merely requires an imaginative approach. We are highlighting two projects that engage multiple generations through interactive design: ·      Bluewater Studio was selected by the Cranbrook Art Museum to create a mini golf course on their grounds. Working closely with the designers at A Couple of Putts, we produced ten custom-designed holes inspired by the rich legacy of art and design. [Photo credit: Cranbrook Art Museum] ·      Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park wanted to create a unique space for young children to play. Our team produced and installed an immersive family garden experience, including a lushly illustrated custom carpet and an array of interactive elements that have proven wildly popular with young visitors. #bluewaterstudio #cranbrookartmuseum #meijergardens #designfabrication #museumdesign #visitorengagement Cranbrook Academy of Art

Arriving visitors at Union Pacific Railroad’s recently renovated offices now have a unique opportunity to appreciate the storied history of the company, which parallels the history of the United States dating back over 150 years. To create that first impression, Bluewater Studio led a team that developed a series of vignettes in the main lobby incorporating historic artifacts from the archives of the Union Pacific Railroad Museum. Supported with conservation-grade mounts, artifacts include a conductor’s uniform, china and tea service, children’s menu and service items, and safety lanterns, as well as a commemorative scarf featuring Abraham Lincoln. Bluewater Studio completed this project in partnership with Meredith Sadler and WeatherstonBruer Associates. #bluewaterstudio #unionpacific #storytelling #brandbuilding #corporatedesign #exhibitdesign
