Designed by the architect Nikola Bašić, the sea organ is composed of a series of “steps” leading down to the water. Water and air flow under these steps into resonant chambers to create a unique sound. The Sun Salutation, a series of solar cells that absorb the sun’s energy during the day, convert the sun’s energy into electricity to illuminate the waterfront with displays of colorful lights at night
