Paris landscape designers TN Plus and architects Beckmann N’Thépe have won a competition to design a zoological park on a series of artificial islands for the outskirts of St Petersburg. Spread across 300 hectares, the park will replace the historic but cramped city-centre zoo. The site will be arranged to loosely reflect the layout of the Earth’s continents when they first began to separate. Different species of animals will be located in their native zones within this diagram. Construction is scheduled for completion in 2014.
