Dueling Dinosaur Exhibit

This project involves a 2,940 SF renovation and a 1,210 SF addition to the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences (NCMNS) in Raleigh, NC. The expansion features a state-of-the-art laboratory exhibit area dedicated to housing and preparing the “Dueling Dinosaurs” fossil. The exhibit is located on the first floor of the Nature Research Center, with the total area being approximately 4,000 SF.

Explore the Dueling Dinosaurs exhibit, featuring a rare fossil with two dinosaurs. Begin your journey by unraveling the mystery of their battle. Then, step into a working paleontology lab where you can watch the fossils being prepared and interact face-to-face with the research team. Finally, immerse yourself in the science lab and try out the tools and techniques used to uncover fossils.
