Glad to meet you!
As a small institution, we know you’re wearing many hats, and juggling many tasks. You’re looking for creative solutions to challenges larger institutions don’t have to worry about--like how to turn a barn into a multi-functional space for nutrition, maintenance, and birthday parties, or how to tackle maintenance improvements while also planning for a new exhibit. Maybe you’re looking to take the leap into AZA or ZAA accreditation, and need a plan that addresses the physical facility so that your attentions can be focused on emergency planning and educational strategy. Perhaps you have a vision for a new lemur exhibit, and need some stunning visuals to raise funds.
Whatever your design or strategy needs, we're here to help.
Felis Consulting is a holistic planning and design firm who wants to be your trusted adviser in all aspects of your unique world.
With two decades of experience in everything from strategic planning to design to construction administration of projects as small as an otter exhibit in Milwaukee to the world’s largest aquarium (three times over), our chief strategist, Stacey Ludlum, is setting her focus exclusively on YOU—the heroes of the animal world: small zoos and aquariums. We know you’ve long been overlooked by the titans of zoo design, but also deeply believe you have every bit as much power to change the world as the big guys. You make moments that impact lives with one-on-one animal connections. You inspire. You educate. You conserve. And we want to help.
In the short-term with affordable concept design and mini-master planning, and in the long-run with 25-year strategic master plans, we’re here for you. Together, we’ll plan for your future to achieve your mission.
Because we all know: the best things come in the smallest packages.
