“Never let fear and common sense slow you down.” - Anonymous

To craft an experience that is informative, engaging and attractive is an immense challenge.

We live for that challenge.

We dare you to be fearless.

We’ve taken seemingly preposterous exhibit ideas and made them come to life for both visitors and staff. And we’ve walked every step of the way, from concept to delivery, so we know where the pitfalls are. We’re intrepid exhibit explorers, aware of the dangers in the process. And it’s not our first canoe trip.

We’re wildcards – the good kind.

Like a joker in a poker hand, we can fit any gap you have, from concept, to design, building, installation and implementation, or all of the above. We’re not here to tell you how to do it, we’re here to help you get it done.

As a boutique exhibit design firm, we thrive on making the impossible plausible. We’ll help you craft unrivalled experiences for your staff and audiences alike. We love the challenge, so bring it on. We dare you. We Double Dare you.

Melanie Greenaway Double Dare Design

Melanie Greenaway, Creative Contortionist

Melanie discovered a passion for exhibit design early in her career. Despite being involved in interesting projects in architecture and product design, she was truly engaged by her work in educational exhibits, and has not looked back. She eventually founded Double Dare Design and has continued to work on multi-disciplinary, content-based exhibit projects under that banner for the past decade.

In her work, Melanie strives for the ideal balance of form and function; every exhibit should look as good as it works. The complex nature of exhibit design has meant that Melanie has honed her skills in coordination and interdisciplinary communications again and again. The results can be seen in her list of returning clients who appreciate her thoughtful and achievable design solutions, and contractors who continually commend her clear drawings.
