WOODBIRD(s)

EXTENSIVE NETWORK OF SUSPENDED MICRO-SHELTER

WoodBird(s) trascends the concept of a simple shelter by creating an interconnected ecosystem of cabins that synergize with the environment. This approach promotes local biodiversity, allowing users to observe and interact with different layers of the forest ecosystem, from the roots to the canopy.

Additionally, the system encourages responsible tourism by offering a sustainable way to explore nature and raising environmental awareness among visitors. Users not only enjoy a safe and comfortable refuge but also actively contribute to the conservation and enhancement of the natural eco-system.

The entire structure, inspired by vernacular huts, features two large openings that ensure total immersion in nature.  Moreover, a mobile anchoring system enables different explorations of local fauna and flora, creating a dynamic and engaging experience.

Structure: Lightweight components, easy to manufacture and transport, are connected by dry joints, ensuring easy assembly and disassembly. This modular design facilitates the installation in various locations while preserving the integrity of the surrounding landscape.
