| The
Saint Katherine Protectorate spans 4350 square kilometers
virtually the entire high mountain area of south Sinai.
The Protectorate was created by the Egyptian Government
in 1996, and the European Union has provided financial
assistance for its early management and development.
The Protectorate aims to conserve the natural and cultural
features of this special area for the benefit of Egypt
and the world.
Our project consisted of two main interactive components.
The first was to perform photography and artwork for
a set of 12 visually inciting and interactive drawer
like posters; the second was to design and author a
software program in four languages to be played in the
visitor center’s touch screen monitors. We also
performed nature photography while drawing on our extensive
collection in conjunction with the rich collection of
the protectorate. The exhibits introduce the natural
and cultural heritage of the protectorate to visitors
while promoting sound eco-tourism.
