Discovery Market, Race to Recycle & Eco Garage

  • Client: Discovery Science Center, Santa Ana
  • 4,020 Square Feet

“Eco Challenge” is an instructive, game-centric environment for children aged 5 to 14, composed of three immersive exhibit spaces: Discovery Market, Race to Recycle & Eco Garage. These hands-on exhibit areas depict a grocery store, a waste-recycling truck, and a household garage. They provide an engaging and immersive experience while teaching about packaging, recycling, and hazardous wastes.

Cinnabar produced, fabricated and installed hundreds of custom-made props; created, prototyped and tested complex games and mechanical systems; and developed engaging animated characters– all in a compressed 9-month design-build program.

The Discovery Science Center won the 2013 National Medal for Museum and Library Service, presented by Michelle Obama, from the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
