creative content and planning for exhibitions, interpretation and digital media
Kensington Palace’s reimagined state apartments by theatre and visual arts collective Coney…offers a fresh approach to Historic house interpretation http://www.hrp.org.uk/KensingtonPalace/stories/palacehighlights/liveperformance.
Also keen to see the Untold Stories of Blenheim Palace near Oxford…http://www.blenheimpalace.com/ by Sinclair design and integrated circles.
This seems to have sparked some debate.

This season at Culzean sees some groundbreaking new interpretation. Visitors can now choose to take a multimedia tour which tells the stories of the Trusts’s flagship property, and brings its rooms to life.
Last week I visited Fountains Abbey with Paul Pomfret from Culzean to help inform the re-interpretation project. Fountains Abbey is one of NTS’s most visited sites and like Culzean has diverse site elements. Paul had heard that they had based their visitor centre on Culzean’s so we were interested to see how a visitor attraction with a similar building, but without the historic building restrictions of Culzean functions. We met with Customer Development Manager, Kath Knight and Education Manager Tessa Goldsmith.
Myself and Culzean Property Manager Paul Pomfret visited a number of sites in London (Osterley, Tate Modern and Kew) on the 11th-12th September ’09 to give us some inspiration and ideas to inform the Culzean Re-interpretation project.
