The series consists of project files created by André & Associates Interpretation & Design, a Victoria-based design company between 1967 and 2014. Headed by Jean Jacques André (1932-2021), and his wife, Joan André, and later his daughter, Bianca Message, the family business planned and designed exhibits for museums, historical organizations, and cultural and visitor centres in Canada, the United States, and abroad. Examples include Craigdarroch Castle, the BATA Museum, the Canadian Museum of Civilization, the Oregon Historical Centre, the National Atomic Testing Museum, as well as the Royal BC Museum (the records for the latter organization are still with the donor)
The series consists of files for numerous projects, and include correspondence, design planning, elevations, concept drawings, photographs, request for proposals, and background reference material, amongst others. Most of the files are for completed projects, but there are also files for projects that did not come to fruition. The series comprises four accessions that were donated to the BC Archives between 2018 and 2023.
