Nendo’s Apartment is for the Birds

Monday, September 17th, 2012

By Sarah Murray

If your domicile preferences are of the avian variety, does nendo ever have the summer cottage for you. The Japanese design firm created this apartment-style birdhouse for the Momofuku Ando Center, a facility in Japan's mountainous Nagano Prefecture devoted to increasing access to nature activities. The bird metropolis gives the avid nature-lover the chance to invade the little birds' privacy. From the inside of the cottage, tiny holes peep into the 78 small houses--cool for us, but creepy for the little sparrows, I'm sure. All in all, a very well-designed way to get up close and personal with some nature.
