Curation Virtual Galleries
There are 3 options when it comes to choosing a virtual gallery space…
- Use one of our ready-made virtual galleries
- Re-create any real space or location
- Design an original & bespoke gallery space
We have five ready-made virtual galleries available. These are the most cost-effective way to create a virtual exhibition. You can also choose to re-create a real location, or design a new gallery space. Each virtual exhibition is custom made & we provide support throughout the design and development process.

Choosing a Virtual Gallery
Amost anything is possible in the virtual world.
The starting point for any exhibition is the architecture and design of the gallery itself. Virtual spaces offer many creative opportunities which wouldn’t be possible in the real world. The most obvious advantage is that these spaces aren’t real, so there are no limits on space and time. Exhibitions don’t need to have a closing time, and they don’t need to be taken down. This means that you build an archive of your exhibitions, and you can make these accessible to audiences around the world. Accessibility and global reach is a big opportunity when doing things virtually.
Choose a ready-made gallery space, recreate a real location, or create something new.
Ready-made Exhibition Spaces
Choose the Mezzanine Gallery, Workshop, White Space, Exhibition Quarter, or Hive.
The first option is to use one of our ready-made exhibition spaces. We have several virtual galleries of different sizes and styles. Your choise really depends how you want to use the space, and there is no need to use all of it. It’s possible to restrict access to particular rooms and areas of each gallery, depending on how much space you need. Contact us for a live demonstration and a virtual tour of our galleries. If you use one of these ready-made spaces you still have the option of making changes. For example, you could paint the walls a different colour or select some furniture for your gallery.

Re-create a real space
We can create an accurate scale model of any location
The second option is to recreate a real space. We can use floor plans, architectural drawings and photographs to create an accurate scale model of any location. This includes realistic flooring, lighting, furniture & fittings. We do not need to visit the space in-person, but we can visit you to take measurements and photographs if necessary. The cost will depend on the level of detail that’s required and we will provide consultation and support throughout the deign process. The virtual space that we create will be exclusive to you and you will then be able to re-use your virtual gallery for multiple exhibitions, at no extra cost.

Design a new virtual space
Get creative & work with us to make something unique.
The final option is to design something completely original. You might want to come up with your own architectural designs, or even create a fantasy world based on a painting, a movie or a real world location. We get really excited about these kinds of projects, so if you have a unique vision, we can help you make it into a virtual reality. You can of course blend reality with imagination. For example, you might want to recreate a real gallery space, and then modify it or add new areas to explore. There aren’t many rules in the virtual world, so you can be as creative as you want to be.
