Marks Design was welcomed back to the York Art Gallery to produce a touchscreen interactive plinth influenced by a late fifteenth-century painting by the Dieric Bouts workshop, Saint Luke Drawing the Virgin and Child.

We also created a fun interactive floor puzzle based on the geometric tile patterns, these were drawn from two of Bout’s paintings.

War Horse – fact & fiction – National Army Museum

‘War Horse’ at the National Army museum was influenced by the book by Michael Morpurgo and the play at the National Theatre.

The story recounts the experiences of Joey, a horse purchased by the Army for service in World War I France and the attempts of young Albert, his previous owner, to bring him safely home.

The exhibition was exceedingly successful, due to this the National Army Museum extended the duration of the exhibition for an extra 6months.
