Our Spinning Family consists of small, quirky wooden figures of animals, each of which symbolize something different. It can be, among other things, the endurance of the kangaroo, the transformation of the swan, the strength of the lion, etc.
Overall, they also have a unified symbolism, which is expressed by the rotating globe when you push them forward.
The rotating globe represents the Earth.
Our intention with the figures is that they become a daily reminder that we all have a responsibility for Mother Earth and for ensuring that future generations are also able to enjoy her. That our choices and actions affect both animals and nature. We want to influence the Earth in a positive direction and benefit it rather than exploit it.
We do not believe that we can be made aware of this enough.
The figures are made from wooden leftovers, which are normally not chosen in design production.

Why the elephant wooden figure?
According to Indian cosmology, an elephant standing on a turtle is a symbol of world stability.
They are a visual reminder of maintaining stability in a changing world.

When you move the figure forward, it turns the earth slowly and gives you an extra reminder to slow down.
