Hus 1 is a Contemporary Chicken Coop on Sweden's West Coast

— June 11, 2012 — Art & Design
Hus 1 is a new chicken coop that looks posh enough to house people. Hus 1 was built by Swedish architect and designer Torsten Ottesjö. The unique structure is meant to mimic the look of a mother hen protecting her young with her wing. The structure is made out of wood, sitting on a steel framework drilled into the rock below. The coop sits on the west coast of Sweden, offering its winged residents an unobstructed view of the sea.

In addition to mimicking the look of a hen, the coop also mimics natural lighting conditions. The house has a lighting system that automatically adjusts to how much sunlight is outdoors. The design of the coop and its technology is ultra-modern, reflecting the new standards of housing livestock set by designers and farmers.
Trend Themes
1. Contemporary Coop Design - Designers and farmers can create contemporary and visually appealing chicken coops that mimic natural structures, enhancing the well-being of the birds.
2. Smart Lighting Systems - Innovative lighting systems that automatically adjust to natural lighting conditions can enhance the comfort and productivity of livestock.
3. Integration of Technology in Livestock Housing - Integrating modern technology into livestock housing can revolutionize the industry, promoting efficient and sustainable practices.
Industry Implications
1. Agriculture - The agriculture industry can incorporate contemporary coop designs and smart lighting systems to improve the welfare of farm animals and increase productivity.
2. Architecture and Design - Architects and designers can seize the opportunity to create innovative and visually striking animal housing structures that prioritize the animals' well-being.
3. Smart Home Technology - Smart home technology companies can explore opportunities to adapt their lighting systems and automation features for livestock housing applications.
