Location                Taronga Park Zoo, Sydney, NEW SOUTH WALES.

 

Description            Intended as a part of the Taronga Zoo refurbishment scheme, the Roar and Snore project consists primarily of sleeping and dining areas that allow the visitor to experience nightlife with the animals.

Budget                   800 thousand dollars.

 

Role                        Peter Thompson Architects will be involved in the full design process, from the initial concept to design development, documentation and contract administration in addition to mastering the challenge of inter-state communication with the Taronga Zoo.

 

Completed             November 2008.
