Zoo Design Inc was asked by the World Associated on Zoos and Aquariums (WAZA) to design 1.) An info graphic linking visitor experience with elephant care, welfare, and wellness. 2.) The cover of their conservation magazine, volume 17.
solution.
The provided text was presented as two cards with corresponding rows distinguished with alternating transparent strips for easy reading. The customized background image of a boy pointing to an elephant emphasizes the interaction between visitors and animals while keeping the columns separate. For magazine cover, a real image was altered to simplify the details and draw attention to the interaction between zoo visitors and the animals.

They needed to present the design with supporting imagery to fully display the design concepts and its impact on visitors. A rough computer rendering needed to be transformed into a beautifully rendered and immersive experience.

Starting from the generic rendering, exhibit specific were added using photoshop. Photoshopped details include: water at the waterfall, animals in the appropriate locations, lighting enhanced to draw attention to the focus areas, appropriate corresponding shadows, animal enclosure mesh, plants and trees. Additionally, large, black vining silhouettes frame the images giving the viewer the sense of looking in through the jungle.
