Emaar Aquarium

Brief:

A big led screen facade includes an underwater experience.

Debrief:

We created a living underwater fauna and flora environment in Unreal Game Engine. We’ve designed and provided different types of sea animals, plants, and corals. With a generative approach, these synthetic living organisms grow, multiply and die. The project is a complete simulation of open-water aquarium life. Installation is directly related to the sun's position. Therefore, the life cycle is related to seasonal changes and day/night cycles.

Visitors interact with the animals, fish stocks, plants or water flows. For special celebration days, new features are added into the environment automatically, such as the holidays, aids etc. Also, there is a customisation typo opportunity for the venue, and a diver holds whatever message Emaar authorised person writes.
