University of Michigan Natural History Museum

University of Michigan

Taylor Studios partnered on the new University of Michigan Museum of Natural History to help create one of our largest and most diverse projects to date. This natural history museum exhibit was an ambitious undertaking, requiring the modernization of vintage dioramas alongside the fabrication of cutting-edge exhibits.

Our work included a wide range of custom exhibit fabrication: realistic habitat dioramas for the “Exploring Michigan” gallery, intricate 3D-printed models for the “Under the Microscope” gallery, and an abstracted “Tree of Life” sculpture. Our team successfully managed the installation of over 600 artifacts, demonstrating our organizational skills and adaptability on this large-scale project. The result is a spectacular museum that has become a dynamic destination for both the university and the public.
