Fordingbridge buildings , canopies , and walkways are installed across the country for the ever-growing leisure and tourism industry , and were carefully selected by Zoological Society of London to design and install 5 large-scale canopies situated across the Zoo throughout the years of 2020 to 2022 , to construct their latest instalments , to better their offering of customer service and experience . We designed each building to improve aesthetic impact and to perfectly recreate the environments these animals and critters come from in the wild . From well-lit curved features , to timber clad square-style builds , the results have been outstanding .
A HOUSE IN MONKEY VALLEY
The Monkey House was designed as a timber clad superstructure with enclosed thermowood walls and a Kingspan roof to incorporate the visual influence of the external surroundings already in-situ along with the guided walkway formations . Customers and visitors become further involved in monkeyplay as the animals make use of the new structure , ensuring an immersive experience , with choice to explore both internally and externally thanks to the allowance of the overhead monkey accessways .
From well-lit curved features , to timber clad square-style builds , the results have been outstanding .
HOME OF THE GALAPAGOS TORTOISES
The new permanent home of the Galapagos Tortoises at London Zoo includes two entryways and an exit lobby as part of this custom design , made for purpose with inverted curved introductory walkways , enticing visitors into the domed home of the tortoises . The curved feature of the building took inspiration from the tortoise shell shape , making for an unusual and intriguing building from external viewpoints , encouraging people to take a peek inside at these critically endangered animals . The height of the structure allows for the installation of specialist equipment , enabling the Zoo to recreate their environments back home at Galapagos Island ; of high humidity and increased warmth , not only for the animals , but for the tropical flora planted too .
