At our core, we are experiential designers with a flair for crafting specialized, themed environments that are driven by story. This is true for every discipline in which we practice, including zoo and aquarium design. Our goal is to sculpt an experience that leaves a lasting impression, because there are few things more powerful than a close encounter with the beauty and wonder of nature and the creatures of this amazing planet.
To fully understand animals’ habitats and their needs, we do a deep dive with every department at the zoo or aquarium before and during the design effort, because after all, the animals are the stars of this show. What Falcon’s brings is vast knowledge of master planning, attraction design, interactive design, and content creation. We are also trend setters in technology, which adds another layer to the mix, especially when those featured animals are actually digital creations.
Through our work with Wild Animal Park, San Diego Zoo, Florida Aquarium, and others, we have developed a variety of techniques to expand our storytelling capabilities while paving innovative avenues to educate people of all ages. Our focus is on finding fresh, creative methods for storytelling through media, virtual reality, and/or augmented reality. These new techniques are also advantageous for our zoo and aquarium clients because they range in budgets to accommodate varying degrees of monetary tolerance.
