Leadership

TSI leadership oversees and manages all departments while forging new connections with clients. It all starts here.

Project Management

Project managers provide updates and detailed schedules to clients and TSI staff, organize logistics, and ensure that client needs are being communicated clearly.

Design

TSI designers work closely with the client to develop a central theme and subthemes for each exhibit. They also create detailed exhibit renderings, design a distinct graphic look, and write the copy that tells meaningful stories.

Fabrication

TSI fabricators combine their professional experiences in painting, sculpting, woodworking, digital fabrication and other skills to create everything from life-sized scenic models to sophisticated exhibit furniture.

Our Mission

To create products and experiences that inspire people within our core values.
