ESI Design
The nationally-renowned firm ESI Design based their
design for INFINITY on the actual work and ideas of
Stennis Space Center's resident scientists, engineers,
and technicians. Throughout the fun, hands-on experience,
visitors assume the roles of scientists and engineers
and explore real world challenges or "missions"
to discover the impact of science and mathematics on the world around them.
ESI worked collaboratively with the resident agencies
and corporations to translate their passion and ideas
into an exciting exhibit program. The experience is
therefore infused with the scientists' enthusiasm
for
their subjects, their thirst to learn more, and their
passion for sharing what they know with others linked
with doing things that are really fun. This spirit,
above all else, will inspire the next generation of
explorers and encourage them to pursue careers in
science and technology.
ESI Design was founded in 1977 by interactive designer
Edwin Schlossberg, and is based in New York City.
Clients include leading cultural institutions and
corporations such as Sony, Statue of Liberty-Ellis
Island, Children's Museum of Los Angeles, Best Buy,
and McDonald's
