Visitor experience design for museums, heritage and culture

The Creative Core is an interpretation design practice creating visitor experiences for museums, heritage and culture. With an approach that puts visitors and communities first, we help build connection, meaning and pride through co-creation and human-centred design.

We are a hands-on, multidisciplinary team based in West Yorkshire and working nationwide. Partnering with a designer can often feel daunting, but not with us. Our creative process is collaborative and rewarding, shaped around your team and your project, underpinned by shared values and perspectives.

We don’t stop at design. We deliver our projects in-house through sustainable manufacture and the skill of our craftspeople, so that you can be confident in achieving your vision and objectives without compromise.
