THE SHARK LIFE CENTRE
The practice was approached by the
non-profit conservation group: Shark
Life, to design a structure that could
provide for the first large scale inland
aquarium focused around increasing
the awareness of conserving the
country's shark heritage. The building
was to be multi-purpose to allow for
additional functions beyond the
aquarium itself and hence the design
included for retail, offices and
