The focus for this collection has been on aesthetics, to materialize moods from the Giant Panda to the consumer and to make stronger emotional ties to this particular animal and thus the desire for action and conservation of this unique creature.
This project is driven by the importance of saving the Giant Panda and maintaining the diversity of wildlife and ecosystems which inspire us. You can say a lot about the Panda and why it is an admirable animal. It is in essence, a walking fossil. The only thing that has changed with the Panda in over millions of years is its physical size. However, many of these animals in pristine forests have disappeared. Therefore the Panda are in many ways the last link to a larger and better understanding of this specific animal group and thus knowledge about our planet and its own development.
