Designed by Sebastain Herkner for Radius, this birdhouse has a design as simple as the materials it was made out of.
Showcased at the Ambiente Fair in Frankfurt, the Sebastian Herkner birdhouse is created from a circle of larch wood and can be strapped easily to a tree, post or column. This removes the need for nails, hooks or screws... and keeps the tree from having to find a band-aid.
