York Castle Museum commissioned us to design a permanent gallery about the swinging Sixties covering themes such as music, fashion, politics, sport, technology and lifestyles.

Our solution included recreating the look and feel of Carnaby Street. A seven-metre high freestanding wall supported large interpretive panels, bespoke cases were designed to house iconic objects. We included a jukebox playing music from the time and large colourful Perspex mobiles. All combined to deliver an unmissable visitor attraction.

 

 

 

“Working with Infinite on the ‘Sixties’ was a fabulous experience with a great result! Since opening, the exhibition has been embraced by thousands of visitors, young and old.”
