As spring slowly rolled in we decided it was time to give our office a little bit of a makeover.   As a tribute to our LEED gold certification we wanted to transform our space using materials that have been invading our lawns, gathering in our model room, hiding in boxes, and filling our recycling buckets.    Our theme was simple.  We spend our days dreaming up creative, innovative and immersive exhibits for our animal friends, so why not make one for ourselves?  We wanted to create “exhibit” spaces that would make visitors curious, feel inspired, or even laugh.  We made trees with cut up cardboard boxes, a zen garden for our friend Coco, a bamboo forest to bring a mural to life, and craft-paper vines that have taken over our walls.  Sculptures and figurines, hand-made and collected through our travels, have been displayed throughout our office and much fun has been had arranging and rearranging them (and then rearranging some more) based on our experience of how animals interact in the wild.  We have had a wonderful time enhancing our habitat, and if you are ever in Philadelphia we would love to give you a tour!
