Tactile Studio expands its international reach by strategically opening an office in New York

Tactile Studio is proud to announce the establishment of its new office in New York. This strategic development is led by Marie Clapot, a recognized expert in the field of inclusive museography.

The New York office will enable Tactile Studio to strengthen its presence in the American market and offer its innovative solutions in sensory design and accessibility directly to the most prestigious cultural institutions in the United States.

Marie Clapot, appointed director of the new New York office, brings with a wealth of experience and a passion for making culture accessible to all. Under her leadership, Tactile Studio aims to develop sustainable partnerships with American museums and enhance their inclusivity mission.

As a legally blind person, Marie is determined to use her strategic vision to positively influence accessibility in cultural spaces across the United States.

“My knowledge of how museums work in the US will be essential in connecting with my colleagues and understanding their expectations. I bring a deep understanding of the impact of the Americans with Disabilities Act on design standards within the museum structure.”

For the occasion, the team made it to the AAM Annual Meeting & Expo, the gathering of museologists and museum professionals, held in Baltimore from May 16 to 19. The team showcased its latest innovations in inclusive design, including tactile objects and tailored signage solutions.

The expo was a unique opportunity for attendees to discover how Tactile Studio can transform museum experiences to make them universally accessible, and to promote French know-how internationally.

The opening of our New York office and our participation in the AAM Annual Meeting & Expo underscore our ongoing commitment to inclusivity in the cultural field.

Tactile Studio invites museum directors, exhibition designers, and all museum professionals to join us in exploring new possibilities for enriching cultural experiences for everyone.
