Birdhouse

Overview

An abstract take on a birdhouse, this play structure incorporates wood and gentle curves to portray the elegant yet rustic marvel of nature. Despite its minimalistic look, it nests many play elements such as physical, social and solitary play. The users can have fun climbing, sliding or even discovering new things and perspectives as they enjoy the view from the lookout deck.

Inspiration

The design is inspired by the timeless form of birdhouses, shelters that symbolize safety, exploration and connection with nature. By reinterpreting this familiar form in an abstract and architectural manner, the structure captures the sense of curiosity and wonder children experience when observing wildlife, while encouraging them to create their own imaginative adventures.
