Exhibition & Installation

We provide comprehensive, end-to-end installation solutions for institutions, artists, collectors and private clients. Whether you’re working with a single artwork or an entire exhibition, we tailor our approach to suit the scale, space, and handling needs of each piece. 

Our work begins with a detailed consultation to determine placement and plan our approach. By collaborating closely with artists, curators, clients and other project leads, we work to bring your vision to life with precision and care. 

On site, our experienced team can handle all aspects of installation — from hanging, mounting and placement, to rigging, scaffolding and elevated situations. We use discreet, museum-grade fixtures and equipment to ensure artworks are presented safely and in the best possible context.

Fabrication

With over 25 years of combined experience in art handling, installation, framing, and artist assistance, our team offers custom fabrication and display services for artists, institutions and the wider public.  

We work closely with clients to develop practical, robust outcomes in a wide range of materials, finishes, and formats. From plinths and pedestals to shelves, subframes, and display units — working across materials such as steel, concrete, timber and composites — each piece is tailored to the structural, aesthetic, or spatial needs of the project. 

Drawing on our diverse industry knowledge and network of trusted suppliers, our process is adaptable and detail oriented, ensuring every component is built to a high standard and fit for purpose.

Artwork Crating

Our custom crating services are designed to meet the rigorous standards of institutional transport and storage. With years of experience working alongside collection-based organisations and artists, our crates adhere to conservation best practices and the requirements of conservators, registrars, and collection managers. 

We offer a range of crate options — from museum-standard to lightweight courier crates — each tailored to the artwork’s dimensions, fragility, and travel conditions. 

Each project begins with an on-site assessment to determine the most appropriate solution. We construct in both structural laminated plywood and honeycomb-reinforced cardboard, offering options for heavy-duty protection or lightweight efficiency. Interior features can include vibration-dampening supports, archival wrapping, insulation, foam lined interior and reusable fittings — all aimed at preserving the condition of the artwork while easing the unpacking process. 

All crates are ISPM-15 compliant for international transit and are suitable for both transport and secure storage upon arrival.
