# Perfect Circle Bird Cribs Super Simple Birdhouse by Sebastain Herkner By Brian G Randles | Published 2010-03-03 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sebastain-herkner References: [notcot.org](http://www.notcot.org/post/28767/) & [medesignmag](http://www.medesignmag.com/products/1926/mobile-homes/#gallery) 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/omer-arbel) and can be [strapped easily to a tree](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burl-treehouse), post or column. This removes the need for nails, hooks or screws... and keeps the tree from having to find a band-aid.
