The Tiger Trek begins…

After two and half years, we’re very excited to see our work on the new Tiger Trek precinct at Taronga Zoo launched.

With Ian Bracegirdle of Motherworks, at the helm of the project team, Nuttshell collaborated on the concept and creation of this brand new tiger precinct. From set dressing props to interpretative signage and wayfinding Nuttshell created all of the graphics to make this precinct come to life.
