Like watery currents, the building is not static – the movement continues into the future by virtue of always allowing possible extensions to add more, simply by letting the lines of the whirlpool grow further out.
In the landscape, the great whirlpool continues through the terrain, the pools and the sea surrounding the building.
Each exhibition has its own face towards the Round Room, each with its own entrance, starting with a buffer zone – a platform where sound and images are used to introduce the atmosphere communicated in the ensuing exhibition room. The Round Room is a centre of navigation in the aquarium, and this is where visitors choose which river, lake or ocean to explore. If you tilt your head backwards, you understand that you are really a part of this aquarium because the roof above the foyer is made of glass, and at the same time it is the bottom of a pool. Here, the whirlpool has pulled you into another world – a world beneath the surface of the sea. As soon as visitors arrive at The Blue Planet, the building will convey a sense of the special experience that awaits them inside. The walls and roofs form a single, continuous flow and the longest of the whirlpool’s arms follows the shape of the landscape and the building, moving into the land inviting visitors inside. Inspired by the shape of water in endless motion, Denmark’s new National Aquarium, The Blue Planet is shaped as a great whirlpool, and the building itself tells the story of what awaits inside.
