This was one of the very first giraffes I came across, and I was under the impression that the orange/yellow colours and pointing arrows were symbolic of the rising sun and the upward movement of the Christchurch rebuild.
Turns out it had more to do with the law firm Anthony Harper, who commissioned this particular giraffe to commemorate its 150th anniversary. Designed by Alejandra Diaz, it had a good position on Worchester Bridge and I personally prefer my own take on the meaning of its colour scheme/symbolism.
