Duck and Duckling

Hans Bolling for Architectmade

It was in the Copenhagen neighbourhood of Frederiksberg in 1959, precisely during rush hour, that a family of ducks waddled into traffic, prompting a policeman to immediately stop the cars and pedestrians so the ducks could cross unharmed. This charming moment made headlines and warmed the hearts of all Danes, including architect Hans Bolling who was so enamoured with the story that he was inspired to create the Duck family.
