45' Shark Tank 

45’ Shark Tank Exhibit 

This custom installation is a 45’ long serpentine curve dividing the exhibit space.  At this size, the only feasible manufacturing technique is onsite construction.  We thermoformed each of the individual aquarium panels in our manufacturing facility and delivered them to the job site ready for placement and bonding.  The project required our crew to cast several vertical bonds on location and a finish and polishing of these bonds in place to bring them to full clarity.   The exhibit is supported on a curved steel stand.  Cast, molded stone panels were attached to this stand and the joints finished onsite forming the visually seamless and sculptural base.  An extensive filtration room is located on a lower level in the commercial building.  The varying, gentle curves of this display host an enormous array of fantastic and distinct views.  You might have seen this exhibit on an episode of The Bachelor along with an estimated 8 million other viewers.
