The whale watching platform for Logans Beach near Warrnambool is a sophisticated machine for redirecting wind and drizzle. Venturi wind scoops, as found on ship bridges, and has been designed with Professor Bill Melbourne to carry rain and mist over the heads of onlookers, while zig-zag paths interrupt the wind. Black rubber membranes stretch over anatomic frame structures. Elbow rests, seats and benches are designed around ergonomic comfort principles.
