National Museum of Marine Science
and Technology Master Plan
Keelung, Taiwan |
|
|
|
The master plan and
conceptual design for the National Museum of Marine Science and Technology was
prepared by CSP in collaboration with Carol Johnson Associates, landscape
architects as an innovative redevelopment of the Pa-Totze peninsula in
Keelung, Taiwan. It will be the site
for a new institution dedicated to the Ocean and its connection to mankind. Residing in two former power plant
structures and a dramatic new ocean habitat building, this world-class museum
introduces a new direction for environmental education facilities. It combines elements of a
science/technology museum with those of an aquarium to address themes of
regional marine ecology, dynamics of the global ocean, and mankind’s role in
ocean exploration, discovery, and stewardship. The museum will act as an economic engine by attracting large
numbers of visitors and act as a demonstration of sustainable growth and the
application of green technologies.
These include energy generated by wind, and recycling of wastewater
on-site through Living Machines technology. To Print Click Here |
