Interactive ‘head up’ dome tank
bournemouth oceanarium
We were thrilled to develop this interactive head up dome display for Bournemouth Oceanarium. The tank allows children to get an up close and immersive view of the clownfish and other tropical species swimming around the beautiful artificial coral reef.
Space was very tight, so we built the display in kit form at our workshop and installed it in a small area, creating a service area behind and linking the display to the existing life support system.
This was a great example of Nautilus working with their client to produce a high impact display in very limited space. Young visitors have been marvelling at the tropical fish through the domes ever since it opened in 2020.
