Taylor Studios

A CMS migration, digital brand expansion, and reusable WordPress theme for a $13M exhibit design and fabrication company.

Brief

Exhibits that educate, engage, and inspire.

Taylor Studios is a leading exhibit design and fabrication firm in Rantoul, Illinois, with over 30 years of experience bringing museums, nature centers, zoos, and institutions to life.

They came to Peabody House for a CMS migration, a digital brand expansion, and a reusable WordPress theme that could keep pace with hundreds of completed projects and a growing portfolio of interpretive work.

The result is a site that feels as considered as their exhibits. It's clear, warm, and built to showcase craft without getting in the way of the story.
