Balance and opposition within simple shapes

On the occasion of the arrival of two giant pandas, the Copenhagen Zoo asked BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group to create a home for them. The configuration seeks to create ideal mating conditions. The layout mimics the yin-yang symbol that in Chinese philosophy represents opposite but balanced forces within a circle. The wooden figure Panda, designed by BIG, is available in two sizes: small and large. The upper body rotates on the lower body and the arms and legs are movable.

Walnut and Maple wood and Leather.
