The project won the Red Dot Design Award.Small models of the giant sculptures are exhibited at Singapore's Red Dot Museum until October 2026,where they can be viewed in 第3页共6页 more detail.So far,just two of the nine designs have been explored.The stork (a kind of bird)was chosen as the symbolic animal of Burgenland while the stag (a kind of deer)was chosen to represent Lower Austria.Both sculptures look really amazing.
