Science Park/Noshiro City Children's Museum

This project involved renovating the facility, which previously housed a space museum and planetarium displays JAXA-donated items, due to its aging infrastructure, to create a facility where children can experience the feeling of being in a "space town." The first floor, formerly a natural science museum, was remodeled into the "Nobishiro Space Lab," unifying the entire facility into a space-themed complex.
Our company was responsible for everything from design, layout of displays space to exhibit execution, construction of the interactive exhibits.

As Noshiro City is home to JAXA's rocket testing grounds, it was requested that displays be designed to convey the city's identity as a "space town," and that interactive displays enjoyable for children from preschool to elementary school age be enhanced.

In displays room on the first floor, we have arranged various displays themed around space and rockets, such as vacuum, gravity, artificial satellites, and the solar system, with "Noshiron," an original character based on a rocket, acting as a guide.
Furthermore, utilizing the open atrium space, a net playground exceeding 6 meters in height, titled "Break Through the Atmosphere!", guides visitors to displays on the second floor.
We also incorporated hands-on equipment that elementary school students can enjoy, such as a vacuum device for experiments and an air table.
