The
Alaska Sea Life Center was created by CSP
principals Bobby Poole and Peter Chermayeff (while at Cambridge Seven
Associates) as a conceptual design and program for a new 60,000sf marine
center in Seward, Alaska. The
center’s main objectives are to provide facilities for research related to
Alaska’s coastal ecosystems and a facility for stranded pinnipeds, cetaceans
and sea otters. Medical treatment,
care, and recovery would promote the
eventual release of these animals.
Visitors are presented with natural exhibit settings, seen above and
below water level, which reveal the behavioral characteristics of sea life
not normally seen by the general public.
The design was completed by Livingston Slone of Anchorage. To Print Click Here |
