Haizlip Studio is genuine in its support of the children’s museum community and is happy to share its experiences and offer its resources to start-up and existing museums.
We know how useful it can be for museums to have acccess to previous projects as examples of what can or might be done.
We are pleased to share information and illustrations created over the years during the development and design of numerous children’s museums.
Please contact Haizlip Studio to gain access to the Start-up bank featured on our FTP site. If we cannot assist, we would be happy to put you in touch with someone who can. Below are many links we have found useful.
