The overall layout of the Georgia Aquarium is mostly rectangular, with more irregular shapes implemented in the southern portion of the structure. The southern portion is also where the entrance and exit are. The entrance of the building from street view is of a curved building with a pointed glass and metal structure pointed towards the sky like the bow of a boat. A blue 'G' with a simplified fish tail is prominently placed towards the top. Closer to the ground a stylized arch-way supported my smooth cylindrical pillars supports a curved swooping flat roof. The overall color of the outside of the aquarium is a silvery-white color with glass reflecting a light blue. From the main entrance to the interior of the building leads the visitors to a wide open room. This central hub connects via halls to other rooms housing exhibits, dining areas, and places of retail. A series of escalators is also present to take visitors to the lower floor.
