Panelock offers a flexible solution for International Quilt Study Center

The International Quilt Study Center at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln is a centre of excellence established to collect, promote, study and preserve quilts and quilt making traditions from many countries.

The building, designed by architects Robert R.M. Stern of New York and Alley Poyner Macchietto Architure, is a masterpiece of architecture. its imposing glass façade wraps around the interior spaces and exhibition rooms. It is holder of the US Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design Silver rating for its environmental sustainability.

The Panelock design team worked with the Center’s curators, using Panelock Gallery Display System 200 and designing special frames which could be attached to either the units or gallery walls to better display the many priceless quilts. The Museum aims to mount from 6 to 8 exhibitions a year, each comprising 15-25 quilts, and System 200 offers a flexible solution to the challenges involved in hanging this number of constantly changing exhibits.
