About Us

Learn more about the Studio for Public Spaces

The Studio for Public Spaces is based in the Exploratorium, the innovative museum of science, art, and human perception. Our work builds on the Exploratorium’s tradition of active, inquiry-based learning experiences, carrying this practice outdoors and into the public realm. Working in public spaces—from the urban core to the city edges—we create exhibits and environments that encourage play, exploration, creativity, and social connection.
