Quality

Duncan McCauley treats each project as a bespoke and unique undertaking that is devised and realised based on its individual requirements.

Our high standards are guaranteed by the experience of our interdisciplinary team in combination with thorough project structures and meticulous planning processes.
A substantial range of media coverage and print publications, as well as awards in national and international competitions inspire confidence in both our ability and standard of quality.

”The very high standard of design in the individual narrative threads provides an entertaining extra dimension to the exhibits and illustrations. As an interactive library, the multi-touch table designed for this exhibition constitutes a highly effective highlight. The media installations are inventive in concept and design, and were realised with a high level of professionalism. They were conceived as part of the exhibition and fitted very well into the latter. Despite the extreme time pressure, the productions were completed both on schedule and on budget.”
