This concept came from the idea, that cyclops is large, angry and fearful. The bulldog came from reffering to the school yard game ''british bulldogs'' which is a similar  to rugby.

This concept has the similar idea to above, fearful and angry. Bears can also run fast for a short distance, like rugby players and bears are stocky like rugby players too.

The name giants came from the cyclops, because I imagine them to be big and have big feet. The eye on the rugby ball comes from the idea that, ''your eye is always on the ball at all times" plus cyclops have one eye too.

An interesting concept I found was:
Nick Bell's Exhibition Design about the effect of climate change. The concept of having the floor representing the terrain of the earth and the roof representing the atmosphere was cleverly crafted, by using materials such as mesh and metal and projecting light onto these. He turned the roof into a sparkling swirl of gases. Nick bell also used the trend mentioned above of using geometric shapes created in the earths terrain. The concept created provided an interactive experience for the visitors.
