Tender description
The Flight gallery on Level 3 of the Science Museum was originally installed in 1963 and underwent its last major update in 1993. A project is underway for review and minor update to the gallery in 2023. Maintenance upgrades are planned, including lighting improvements, interpretation updates and accessibility improvements. In terms of content, the main changes will be made to the graphics, interpretation panels and object labels. The layout of the gallery will remain the same, with objects both within cases and on open display remaining in situ. We are looking to introduce a more uniform labelling approach more in line with our newer galleries. The gallery will incorporate several types, detailed in the specification attached but broadly in the following categories: - Large-scale wall-mounted panels - In-case angled labels (label mounts to be provided) - Labels for freestanding or wall-mounted angled plinths - Racking-mounted labels - Various numbering - Large-scale title / dates
