The number of House Sparrows has dramatically decreased in recent times because of a lack of nesting areas in the modern environments we build. This project looks to give, not only a nice look to nameplates and house numbers, but also a nice home for Sparrows. Each hallow wooden 3D letter provides ample room for Sparrows to nest and breed.
‘Box’ is a 2006 installation by Argentinian artist Pablo Curutchet that was installed in the city of Cordoba. The enormous man who appears to be emerging from a river Godzilla-style, was constructed of 882 pounds (400 kg) of cardboard boxes with a team of roughly a dozen people. (via designboom)
