Werribee Open Range Zoo

 

An intriguing blend of architecture and landscape design, the HASSELL master plan for the 180ha Open Range Zoo at Werribee creates a seamless integration of buildings and landscape, with key buildings including an interpretive centre and visitor facilities built from timber and rammed earth. The design incorporates an innovative water management system, with waste water used in water features through the park, and disposal systems for animal wastes and storm water ensuring protection of the nearby river.
