BLU PLANET AQUARIUM National Aquarium Of Denmark - Kastrup, Denmark
Client: Event Network
Designers: David Gerken
Project: Aquarium gift store design and visualization
The award winning building that houses the Blu Planet Aquarium in Copenhagen was designed by 3XN Architects, and its flowing volumes throughout make reference to the circulating whirlpool currents of the world’s oceans that were the inspiration for the structure. What that meant for the designer of the aquarium’s gift store is that he was compelled to follow the flowing forms that housed the retail spaces. The challenge then was to design fixtures that fit the fluid walls and footprint. The illustrations below are several of the visualizations that were presented for the aquarium gift store proposal.Aquarium gift store design and visualization
