Octonauts: Adventure at the Horniman
A free family trail at the Horniman Museum and Gardens, 13 February – 1 November 2026
In 2025, my sister Delphine and I were commissioned to conceive, write and design an Octonauts-themed family trail around the Horniman Museum and Gardens to accompany their Voyage to the Deep – Underwater Adventures exhibition.
Aimed at children aged 3 to 7 and their adults, the trail features a range of playful, accessible activities encouraging families to explore the Horniman’s collections. I developed the interpretive concept and ‘missions’, while Delphine created the vibrant folded-paper trail design, bringing the experience to life with Octonauts characters and official artwork.
Here’s a sneak peek – visit before 1 November to see the rest in person!

“It was a delight to work with Corinne and Delphine. We were impressed by their expertise, enthusiasm, commitment and care throughout the process, and this is well demonstrated by the success of the activity trail with our visitors.”
