Client Dilemma

Designing and building spaces that captivate visitors while meeting functional needs is challenging. Curators and gallery owners often have to balance creative ambition with external budget pressures and the limitations of space. Once the build is done, KitMapper can provide a whole suite of services from the installation of temporary partition walls, soundproofing and the production of wayfinding or gallery interpretation.

KitMapper Solution

Through our many years experience and our broad network of spatial designers, KitMapper are able to create innovative concepts for exhibition spaces, ensuring technical excellence, maintaining safety standards, whilst managing the project from concept to completion.

KitMapper offers UK wide design and London based build services to transform your gallery into a visually stunning and functionally efficient space. Our comprehensive solutions include gallery construction and all the details that change your space from a white cube to your gallery. In order to do this we ensure every detail is meticulously planned and executed.
