We were most impressed by MOSH’s commitment to reflecting the stories and perspectives of the diverse population that it serves. “The MOSH Genesis project represents limitless opportunities to craft the region’s unique scientific and historical story into a dynamic, next-generation visitor experience. This unique aspect is what has truly inspired our studio throughout the selection process,” said Whitney Rutter, CEO of Local Projects. Rarely does a project have this combination of world-class design and highly localized content and community focus. “It is an honor to have the opportunity to collaborate with the MOSH and their selected design team. Local Projects will work with MOSH leadership, the MOSH Genesis project architect team (DLR Group, kasper architects + associates and SCAPE), community partners and subject matter experts to create the exhibitions for each area. The new MOSH plans include approximately 22,500 square feet of permanent exhibition spaces, comprising three themed exhibition spaces that are central to the MOSH mission: the Natural Ecosystem, the Cultural Ecosystem and the Innovation Ecosystem. MOSH, and the hundreds of thousands of visitors it serves each year, will benefit immensely from their expertise.” “Their studio develops creative exhibitions that become must-visit experiences. “MOSH Genesis continues to attract the highest caliber of project partners, and we are proud to welcome Local Projects to the team,” said Bruce Fafard, President and CEO of MOSH.
