Design
Develop interactions, sound, media and physical elements with the engineering that makes the design work.
Explore Design ↗DESIGN THROUGH DELIVERY
The idea. The detail.
The working result.
Mad brings design, engineering, programming and fabrication together. We can develop a defined part of your project or carry an agreed scope from the first brief through integration, commissioning and continuing support.
OUR SERVICES
The expertise your next step needs.
Consultancy
Clarify an idea, assess an existing system or shape a specification with practical options and a defined next step.
Explore consultancy ↗Engineering & Programming
Build the software, control interfaces and systems that carry the intended behavior into the installation.
Explore engineering ↗Project Management
Coordinate scope, teams, decisions and dependencies from design through handover.
Explore project management ↗Systems Integration
Stage, install, configure and commission the system in the room where it will be used.
Explore integration ↗Support & Evolution
Diagnose problems, maintain the installation and plan component and capability updates.
Explore support ↗WHY THE COMBINATION MATTERS
The people developing the idea can help prove it.
An interaction may involve software, sound, a physical control, an enclosure and the way someone approaches it. Having those disciplines work together lets the team prototype the uncertain parts, resolve interfaces and test the experience before installation.
EVIDENCE IN THE WORK
See what Mad contributed.
Design and physical exhibits
Your Baby’s Amazing Brain is a mobile exhibition for the Museum of Teaching and Learning, with Mad contributing design and exhibit development.
Read the project ↗Interactive software and imagery
For the Hogwarts Castle Model at Warner Bros. Studio Tour London, Mad combined gigapixel photography, graphics and interactive programming.
Read the project ↗Sound and systems in a demanding space
Science Storms at Chicago’s Museum of Science and Industry brings sound and AV engineering into an open exhibition about physical phenomena.
Read the project ↗NEW PROJECT OR EXISTING SYSTEM
There is more than one way to begin.
Develop the brief
Start with the purpose, audience and constraints. A requirements brief or focused prototype can make the next decision clearer.
Plan the first stage ↗Join the team
Bring Mad in for design, specialist software, engineering or integration alongside your chosen partners.
Explore collaboration ↗Review and refresh
Assess what can be retained, what needs to change and which later capabilities the new foundation should support.
Explore retrofit ↗TECHNOLOGY WITH A DEFINED SCOPE
Select what the project needs.
Our project work also drives continuing development. QuickSilver® supplies a computing foundation for selected AV++® capabilities. Mad Intelligence™, Mad Hatter™ and WorldModel™ extend the work into continuing engineering, advanced audio and governed operation.
Build the scope around the outcome you need: design, engineering, software, fabrication, installation, or ongoing support. We identify the relevant established capabilities and any development or qualification work before agreeing on what will be delivered and how it will be accepted.
LET’S BUILD WHAT COMES NEXT
What are you creating or changing?
Bring an idea, a brief or an operating challenge. Let’s identify the design and engineering work that will move it forward.
