Discover Through Touch
Touch & Feel Interpretation Boxes
Invite visitors to investigate an object by touch before revealing what is inside. These interpretation boxes combine tactile discovery with a sliding top reveal and a short description of the item.
The boxes can be incorporated into interpretation walls and museum displays at a range of mounting heights. Visitors explore the concealed contents and then use the reveal to compare their impressions with the object and its description.
The range also includes replaceable scent pods, accessed through a sliding hatch. Colourful fronts and straightforward physical actions make the units useful building blocks for sensory interpretation, with the contents and surrounding graphics shaping the subject of each activity.

The reveal is an important part of the activity: visitors first form an impression through touch, then compare that impression with what they see. This simple sequence encourages observation and conversation without depending on a screen. Because the boxes sit within wider interpretation graphics, the objects, descriptions and surrounding subject can work together as one sensory museum display.
