Roto has produced in more than 150 museums with exhibits, attractions, and architectural features throughout the world. Our team of 85 professionals offer a broad and unique skill set, combining design and development excellence with in-house engineering and fabrication for a wide array of exhibits and attractions.

Whether inventing a highly strategic master plan for an aquarium renovation, creating a cool new concept for an attraction, designing an interactive children’s experience, engineering a sophisticated media installation, building a gorgeous custom structure no one has ever built before, installing a gallery full of priceless artifacts, or a hundred other things we do, Roto creates “awesome.” This is a term we have adopted to cover the full spectrum of what we are entrusted, and entrust ourselves, to deliver to the world. We all know what awesome means. It’s what we say when we are delighted, amazed, intrigued, moved, convinced, or simply having fun with friends and family. And for Roto, “awesome” is usually created from scratch – from nothing, through ideation, design, engineering problem-solving, and final fabrication. “Roto creates awesome” implies a never-ending striving for innovation and change. We can state Roto’s vision this way: To create awesome forever.
