The Batumi Aquarium, Georgia


Danish firm Henning Larsen Architects has won the competition to design an aquarium in Batumi, Georgia.

Called Batumi Aquarium, the design of the building is inspired by characteristic pebbles found on Batumi beach and will provide views of the beach and the Black sea.

The building will be made of four pebble-shaped structures, each housing an exhibition space representing a unique marine biotype – the Aegean and Mediterranean seas, the Indian ocean, the Black and Red seas and an interactive exhibition.
