Project Details
Just in time for the Spring Break rush, the Aquarium of the Pacific completely revamped their outdoor souvenir shop. What was once a dark, and dreary corrugated steel “Shark Shack” is now a brilliant sea shell shaped tension structure with an abundance of natural light.
The top cover measures approximately 41’ Wide by 29’ Projection is covered with Sheerfill V Architectural Membrane, which provides a shaded coverage area of 995 square feet.
