I came across this story a while back over at Inhabitat. It’s a company called Modern Birdhouses. I think the name is pretty self-explinatory as to what they do there. I don’t really have any feelings one way or another about birdhouses, but I’m always interested in seeing examples of good design. The biggest thing that interested me about this company, was it’s founder’s ability to combine two things they loved, architecture and birdhouses, into a new career. I really love it when people find a way to do that. In a perfect world, work would be a pleasure… not a chore.
These beautiful modern birdie-abodes will be featured at the upcoming show, “The Modern Bird” along with over 20 other designer birdhouses. The show opens this Thursday July 5th 2007 at Design Commission in Seattle WA.
