EDITORS COMMENTS

This photograph showcases the iconic Penguin Pool at London Zoo, a groundbreaking masterpiece of modernist architecture designed by Berthold Lubetkin and his Tecton Group in 1934. The image beautifully captures the unique double helix form of the concrete ramps, which were ingeniously designed to mimic the natural penguin habitats in the wild. Lubetkin's innovative use of concrete in the creation of these intricate ramps revolutionized the way architects approached the design of public spaces, particularly those for animals. The Penguin Pool at London Zoo was a significant departure from traditional zoo enclosures, and its opening marked a turning point in the history of zoo design. The pool, which was the first of its kind, provided a more natural and humane environment for the penguins, allowing them to live in a more authentic and stimulating environment. The photograph serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Berthold Lubetkin and the Tecton Group, whose modernist designs continue to inspire architects and designers around the world. The Penguin Pool at London Zoo remains a beloved and iconic landmark, attracting visitors from all corners of the globe who are drawn to its unique beauty and historical significance.
