With an established and experienced group of subcontractors and an inventory of tested designs and techniques, we feel very confident about our ability to tackle all kinds of challenges.
We have a love of novelty (let's face it; we're easily bored!), and we're fun to work with.
Starting out as L. Morcom & R. Storm, in the '80's we formed an association with Sound Design Studio, a pioneering environmental sound company, and built specialised speaker enclosures for use in such projects as :
Pacific Rim Aquarium, Osaka, Japan.
Travelling Bicentennial Exhibition, Australia.
South Australian Maritime Museum, Adelaide, South Australia
Darling Harbour Aquarium, Sydney, Australia.
Silicon Valley Museum of the Microchip, Silicon Valley, California
Biosphere 2 Project, Arizona
Atlanta Zoo, Atlanta, Georgia
San Diego Zoo, San Diego, California
Christopher Columbus Aquarium, Genoa, Italy.
Institute of Sport, Melbourne Cricket Ground, Melbourne.
Seal Enclosure, Melbourne Zoo.
and many others.
In the 90's our client, Magian Multimedia, secured the National Science Centre project in Malaysia which led to us into exhibits and interactives construction. Since then, we have aquired many more clients and carried out major and diverse projects.
