Columbus Zoo

We're thrilled to serve as the exhibit design firm for the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium. Our past work on the Perkins Wildlife Center at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History has given us valuable and intimate knowledge of how to create interpretive experiences that showcase native species and diverse ecological systems. Our team of experienced design professionals continues to deepen our understanding of Ohio's flora, fauna, natural habitats, communities and conservation efforts to help shape the exhibit experience for the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium.

As part of the unified team with LMN Architects, we'll bring our unique perspective to the project, combining our skills in habitat, exhibit design, and interpretive planning with LMN's expertise in architecture, programming, sustainability, and project management. Together, we'll ensure that the conceptual design is tailored to the needs and aspirations of the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium.

Our team is led by Project Exhibit Designer James Pase, who has extensive experience in habitat and exhibit design; Senior Curator Cynthia Lee, who will provide interpretive planning; and Project Manager Eric Lindveit. Our collaboration with LMN and other consultants will result in a comprehensive and cohesive concept design that showcases the beauty and importance of Ohio's natural world while telling local and global conservation stories.

We're excited to help create an unforgettable experience for visitors to the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium.
