The 'Le Nid' installation is every [breakfast lovers dream spot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/early-birds-diner). Located in Nantes, France, the installation is a bar set-up, nestled on top of the Brittney Tower. Not only does this installation offer a unique ambience, it also offers incredible views of the city. Artist Jean Juillien was commissioned to make a hip and alternative space on top of this large building.

The theme was to create a nest on top of the city, while also paying homage to the location. Patrons can grab a drink at the [giant bird](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heir-and-a-spare), and take a seat in one of the egg chairs. If you want to check out the spectacular views of the city, patrons are also welcomed to go out on the terrace.
