National Maritime Museum
Discovering Australia’s museum of the sea where you can dive deeper into the connection with oceans, rivers and lakes Australia has. Creating memories with family and friends from the many experiences the Museum offers and then taking those learning experiences home with you through the new Museum store.
NBRS was engaged by Aurify to provide architectural services for the design and construction of the refurbished Museum store at the Australian National Maritime Museum. The fit out amplifies the Museum’s key themes of ocean health, sustainability and indigenous culture to contribute to the complete visitor experience
The new space offers an attractive, immersive, surprising and personal experience, where visitors are drawn into a striking timber batten entrance, depicting the shape of oscillating ocean waves. This timber was sustainability sourced and provides a seamless connection between the existing museum and new retail zone.
