Sea Creature Theatre

My project, 'Creatures of the Sea Theatre,' aims to restore the Sow and Pigs Reef through architecture. Specifically, it combines a theatre and research centre, located 500m off Green Point in Watsons Bay. The reef has been damaged due to explosives, heavy boat traffic, and weather erosion over time. The buildings are positioned to protect the reef from further damage with the aim to regenerate the reef to its previous state. Prospectively the reef could flourish more than ever before.
