Skidmore, Owings & Merrill is celebrating Chinese New Year and more than four decades of working in China with the 12-year zodiac calendar illustrated by the firm's Graphics + Branding studio.

Visit SOM's website to see the calendar in detail and learn how each icon was designed. Here are their words for 2015, the Year of the Goat (below): "The eighth animal of the Chinese zodiac, the Goat is polite, elegant, creative, calm, and dependable. Its dignified stance and steady footing communicates its poise and composure, while curved antlers suggest an inherent charisma and creativity."
