In order to inspire calm and educate the public on life under the sea, Tetra and the Aquatic Design Centre teamed up to create a pop-up aquarium in the London Underground.
'The Tetra Tranquility Tank' is an installation that gives commuters the chance to look at a collection of crabs, catfish, turtles and angel fish, as well as a variety of natural plant life. The tranquil experience of looking at these beautiful aquatic creatures is complemented by a multi-sensory experience filled with therapeutic underwater sounds, calming lighting and the scent of freshly brewed herbal tea.
In all, the experience is designed to help the busy people of London pass through the station and leave feeling more refreshed than when they first entered.
