Korkeasaari Zoo
Modern Architecture & Design news: "French architects Beckmann-N’Thépé and landscape designers TN+ have won a competition to remodel Korkeasaari Zoo in Helsinki, Finland. The proposal involves creating a large glass-domed entrance and animal viewing building on the island zoo, and bringing back polar bears after a 30-year absence. The architectural interventions of the zoological island of Korkeasaari will be concentrated to make it wild and mysterious once more – a park / garden as a place of popular privilege, the nobility of the future city."

Thanks Jess
This project (and the awesome renders) was what inspired me to look at zoos for this year. I'd actually forgotten about it!
