For as long as we’ve told stories, we’ve told stories about heroes.

But what does it mean to honour real-life heroes and their real-life stories?

At the National Medal of Honor Museum in Arlington, Texas, this question is answered not through myth or legend, but through the preserved legacies of those who stood for something greater than themselves. These are stories of valor, sacrifice, and quiet strength, told through letters, objects, and tangible symbols and memories.

Meyvaert played a meaningful role in giving form and protection to these stories without overshadowing them. Our team designed and installed 90 showcases that form a silent architecture of remembrance, uniting the timeless values embodied by our heroes, but simultaneously narrating each individual tale.

From early planning through to installation, our close collaboration with Kubik Maltbie ensured that everything fit seamlessly. Not just technically, but also emotionally. These showcases aren't just functional glass boxes; they're storytellers, curators, guards.

We are honored to be a strong supporting character in this collective narrative. 

Do you have a story to tell? An audience to inspire? A heritage to preserve? Reach out to us, and let’s begin our first chapter together.
