Designing spaces for creatures big & small

We strive to create compelling experiences that connect people with wildlife and inspire personal responsibility for conserving the natural world and all those who share it.

The best way to understand wild animals is to see and experience them in the context of their own habitats. We strive to create compelling experiences that must attract, engage and ultimately transform the visitor’s appreciation and understanding of the natural world surrounding them and hopefully move them to action. For both our human and long-term animal guests, we create rich and engaging exploration opportunities, exotic foods, wild landscapes and enriching play opportunities with the emphasis on comfort, hospitality, and a transformational experience that sparks curiosity and is both incredibly fun and enlightening.

Harmony Unleashed: Crafting an Experience Where Nature, Knowledge, and Joy Converge

Creating a successful zoo or aquarium that is both good for animals, entertaining for guests, and supportive for staff involves a thoughtful approach to design. At the core of this endeavor is the commitment to developing the best exhibits that cater to the needs of animals, visitors, and the personnel. An emphasis on mimicking natural habitats ensures that the animals are comfortable and content, promoting their physical and mental well-being. A key aspect of good design is providing ample opportunities for animal viewing while also incorporating educational elements to enlighten visitors about the importance of wildlife conservation. The integration of amenities and facilities, coupled with effective climate control, ensures a seamless experience for both the creatures and guests. Beyond the public spaces, attention to the behind-the-scenes aspects such as holding facilities and back-of-house support is crucial for overall functionality. Ultimately, the foundation of a successful design lies in a deep understanding of the animals that inhabit it, striving to create a playground in nature that is both enriching and enjoyable for all involved.
