Be Kind to Animals, they said.

But then proceeded to trap them inside a cage.

For education purpose, they said.

Unethical practice towards animals has begun since the movement of the modernism architecture, yet still can be found until today. Human tends to dominate a space, even made a so-called animal home in the city, called a Zoo. Where it’s trapping them in a room that isn’t even suit for themselves. Dominate, and prioritized human needs, leds to another unethical practice. The aim in this project is to study the Andrea Palladio’s ‘Perfect Proportion for Room Organizing’ and combining the theory with the studies of animal’s behaviour in marking their territories, to create an ethical space placement for animal. Rearranging and reprogram the whole area with Palladio’s theory and respecting the animal’s comfort is the goal in the project of the new Zoo prototype.
