South American Tropical Forest

Re-envisioning an existing exhibit, Thinc is designing a South American Tropical Forest that feels as if nature has “taken over” with a lush planted area, waterfall, stream, and animal habitats. With diminished boundaries between walkways and exhibit areas, visitors will experience close-up views of biodiversity such as birds, piranhas and amphibians. Interpretation focuses on the importance of the rainforest, conservation efforts, and animal wellness.
