Denver's Ocean Journey

Colorado's Ocean Journey
multiple exhibits
Sunken boat for Sea Otter exhibit
Addition to existing live sea otter exhibit to enhance and entertain sea otters.
Tiger enclosure, update exhibit to make it safer for the handlers and more stimulating for the animals.
Hornbill enclosures.  We had to adapt an alcove and seamlessly build a space to house a live hornbill exhibit. We designed and built doors and windows for viewing the hornbill and disguised them between fabricated roots and rocks.  
Gulf Shores exhibit.  This exhibit was a salt water enclosure which housed fish, rays and birds.  For this project, we had to build rock walls, sandy lagoons and beach areas for the animals.
Vent cover shields.  This project was created to cover existing ventilation grids and to incorporate a covering that seamlessly blended in to the existing rock work and environments.  The main challenge of this project was to use a material that could be sculpted to imitate the rocks or environments while allowing the circulation for the HVAC system while using all noncorrosive materials. 
Hagfish environment.  We created a realistic dead fish for the hagfish exhibit to serve as a feeder and stimulation object for the animals.
