Earlier in the year, we celebrated Mather & Co’s 25-year anniversary. The visitor attraction design consultancy, based in Cheshire UK, have created and designed some of thee most prestigious museums, exhibitions and visitor attractions across the world.
Mather & Co have come a long way since designing the Granada Studios Tour Manchester in the 1980s. From the Olympic Museum and Silverstone Experience, to the World Rugby Museum and Coronation Street: The Tour, Mather & Co are always keen to advance their portfolio in various attraction sectors.
Mather & Co are enjoying 25 years of first-class visitor experiences
In June 2019 Mather & Co enjoyed a record month of six project openings. 2020 might have evoked uncertainty in the experience sector, but that hasn’t stopped the successful attraction consultancy moving forward with bigger and better projects in the pipeline.
Future projects
Mather & Co are currently entering the delivery phase of Belgium Beer World. Which similar to the Heineken Experience Amsterdam and Guinness Storehouse Dublin, will provide a multi-sensory experience around beer. The Brussels attraction is planned to be launched in 2023.
The design consultancy is also working alongside Pringle Richards Sharratt, to reimagine Ipswich Museum. The project aims to combine original and contemporary vision to maximise visitor interactivity and engagement. Mather & Co are responsible for revamping all nine galleries, as well as designing the shop and café experience within the 19th Century museum. The redevelopment is expected to be completed by the end of 2024.
Mather & Co are developing other projects that we aren’t allowed to reveal just yet.
