# Chirp-Amplifying Perches The Nature Speaker Turns Up the Volume on Your Lovely Backyard Noises By Amelia Roblin | Published 2013-01-28 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nature-speaker References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2013/01/28/musical-home-for-birds/) Australians will probably see no need to hang the [Nature Speaker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/demountable-pavilion) from their back porches, but North Americans and Europeans would certainly delight in the amplification of the beautiful songs of more timid neighborhood birds. The [lovely ceramic object](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haiku-box) presents your feathered friends with a tiny twig-like perch on one end and opens up like a megaphone to the other side. The asymmetrical hourglass shape of the Nature Speaker birdhouse causes the music of sparrows and wrens to echo and become louder, increasing the proof of their presence. Perhaps the beautiful music that comes out of Eun Ji Lee's delightfully [lyrical sculpture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acoustic-sculpture-speaker) will help to drown out the sounds of passing vehicles and airplanes flying overhead, emphasizing the allure of the natural world outdoors. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.4/10 - Popularity: 15% | Activity: 20% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Nature-empowering Products:** Products that enhance and amplify the sounds and sights of nature, providing an immersive outdoor experience. - **Design-centric Birdhouses:** Birdhouses that combine functionality with aesthetic appeal and unique design features. - **Home and Garden Accoutrements:** Decorative or functional items intended to enhance the ambiance and functionality of outdoor spaces. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Home Decor:** Opportunities for home decor companies to tap into the market for design-focused outdoor accessories. - **Gardening/outdoor Living:** Opportunities for companies specializing in gardening or outdoor living products to expand their offerings to include unique and innovative birdhouses. - **Eco-friendly Products:** Opportunities for eco-conscious companies to introduce birdhouses that prioritize sustainability and environmental friendliness. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Nature-Inspired Calming Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whistle-speaker.md) - [Birdcage-Inspired Smart Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bird-intelligent-sound-box.md) - [Natural Sound-Amplifying Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amplification-of-the-senses-chair.md) - [Nature-Inspired Multifunctional Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moss-echo.md) - [Whimsically Designed Speaker Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-for-ara-fs1-and-fs2.md) - [AI Bird Identifying Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bird-weather.md) - [Bird-Inspired Earbud Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tweettunes.md) - [Nature-Inspired Speaker Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/devialet-butterfly.md) - [Birdhouse-Integrated Address Signs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/our-common-house.md)
