Schibley Exhibition Design most certainly did NOT design Jungleworld. It was--like most Bronx Zoo projects--designed in-house. It is possble that Shibley or someone who works there was involved in some aspect of the project, which is not uncommonly a way for firms and individuals to take credit for entire projects based on the slimmest of connections
Thank you- I was quite surprised by this myself. I only put it because it was listed on their website.
GREAT question! Yes love to know is there a theme, or is it nothing more than a cash cow industry milking the environmental theme selling conservation.
