TELUS World of Science set out to modernize its facilities with vibrant, safe, and functional products—while ensuring everything blended seamlessly with the building’s existing design.
Upgrade the workshop with colorful, durable, and safe solutions suitable for users of all ages.
Design a unique storage system that aligns with the center’s creative and visual identity.
TELUS World of Science in Edmonton is a dynamic, multi-disciplinary learning center featuring themed galleries, a planetarium, an IMAX theatre, and rotating exhibits. It serves both children and adults through engaging, hands-on experiences. One standout area is the Science Garage—an interactive space with a climbing wall, wind tunnels, a dance floor, and a fully equipped workshop.
As part of an upgrade project, the Science Garage manager sought a solution that combined durability, safety, and bold aesthetics. Through their purchasing team, they connected with Waymarc, a local Rousseau Metal Inc. dealer, to explore options tailored to their needs.
“We needed products that were durable, secure for safety, and available in bright colors to match our space. Waymarc provided a Rousseau solution that exceeded our expectations,” the manager shared.
Waymarc guided the team through the process, presenting color samples and recommending Rousseau for its quality and long-lasting performance. During the design phase, they developed detailed layouts and drawings to ensure every element fit perfectly within the space.
“Rousseau’s local dealer truly listened to our needs and made sure we were satisfied before anything was delivered. The installation team executed everything exactly as planned,” the manager added.
The final setup delivered both functionality and visual impact. Lockable cabinets with a unified key system provide consistent security, while mobile drawer units and storage cabinets keep materials organized and easily accessible. The bold colors enhance the space’s aesthetic, and the durable powder-coated finish ensures the system will maintain its appearance for years to come.
When asked if he would recommend Rousseau, the manager responded:
“Absolutely. We’re often asked where we sourced our workbenches and cabinets, and we’re proud to showcase our Rousseau systems.”
