esign futuring is not just to design a building that is only for human occupation, it is also essential to design a better living environment for both human and other species. On the way approaching to future, the necessity of maintaining the diversity of ecology will become more essential, therefore, it is important to create a region that is well-designed for all lives. The project that is commissioned by the givskud zoo, which unites an array of international animals on a site in central Denmarkis, is designed by architecture office BIG. The zoo is planned as three separate loops of sinuous geometry, and each representing a different region of the world (asia, africa, the americas). this trio of diverse experiences surrounds a circular central plaza, which is bordered by an elevated walkway.
