During the development of the Monterey Bay Aquarium, GTD created a content plan, using interspersed drawings to describe what the visitors will see.

The plan is based on habitats. From the intertidal, the wharf and the slough, to the kelp forest and sandy bottom, this plan was created as a "visual content map" for visitors. The art was drawn to flow one habitat into another. Different perspectives were woven together, to add visual interest, unexpected junctions of fish, animals and plant life.

Each habitat was labeled, and light and shadows were integrated to create an artistic impression of Monterey Bay.
