What We Do

At Brian Pierson Design Studio, we are a full resource for forensic and paleological facial reconstruction. Brian Pierson is a Ph.D. at the Tulane University Department of Physical Anthropology. He has been working as a sculptor in the special effects field for over fifteen years and applies both skill sets to our facial reconstructions.

Paleological Facial Reconstructions

We are experienced at creating display pieces of early human ancestors for various museums worldwide including the lapedo child for the welcome center in Lagar Velho, Portugal; as well as a travelling display of the Nariokotome boy (Homo erectus) which appears at campuses all over the U.S.

Forensic Facial Reproductions

We also have experience in forensic facial reproduction as is evidenced by the successful conclusions to several cases in Louisiana and California.
