LEARNING
The beginning of our process includes immersing ourselves in your culture and your project. We ask questions and listen to the stories you want to tell. These early discussions help us build a strong foundation on which to create a successful project. We identify and explore your audiences to achieve targeted messages.
IMAGINING
Our next steps delve into the visualization of the project. Through ideation and creative explorations we create impactful visual approaches that best suit the tone and needs of the project. Through collaborative feedback sessions, we refine our approach until we’ve created the most effective and engaging designs.
ACHIEVING
The final step of the project can look very different between interpretive plans, immersive exhibits, environmental experiences or more traditional marketing. Whatever the end product, the final phases are spent creating detailed plans, refining and polishing designs, and ensuring the execution meets everyone’s expectations.
Our Process
No matter the project, our thorough development process ensures a successful outcome.
Our Four Guiding Principles
COLLABORATION
We integrate our process with your team. We work together to meet the goals and objectives of the project, as well as fit within your larger institutional goals.
CONTENT DRIVEN, RESULTS ORIENTED
Our approach is centered on the stories we want to share and the places we plan to share them. We lay a strong foundation of goals and outcomes to build upon throughout the process.
RESPONSIBLE STEWARDSHIP
We apply sustainable principles wherever possible, creating designs that are both environmentally and operationally responsible.
EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION
Clear communication is key to effective collaboration. We track, record, and check all directives of the project at regular intervals, ensuring the full team is informed and engaged.
Working together with Gecko on the Elk project was a highlight of my career. You guys are fantastic. I just wish we could have had you on board during the planning phase."
Jean Devlin
Chief, Environmental Education and Interpretive Section, Department of Conservation and Natural Resources
Having worked with Gecko Group, there is no finer firm to work with. We retained Gecko Group knowing that the standards and goals that were set would be met and matched well."
