Birdhouse from Vlaemsch()

birdhouse-1

Designed by Emilie Cazin, the Birdhouse links the balcony to its green surroundings and the inhabitants of apartments to the birds outside.

Lacking a garden in her LEGO like apartment building, Emilie Cazin created this Birdhouse in order to attract birds to her balcony and thus stand out from all the piled up apartments with the same windows, same walls, same balconies. The uniform balcony is transformed into a lookout for bird watchers. Birdhouse, with form that refers to, but clearly deviates from he parabolic antennas in the cityscape, is an invitation to the city’s birds to nest close to one’s window.
