Spot of... birdhouses!


Spot by Quentin de Coster is a playful birdhouse that diverts the traditional wooden nest box by adapting it to the plastics industry. Composed of a thermoformed polystyrene hull and an aluminium base, this object to fix in your garden provides the birds with the opportunity to land on the disk or instead, to take shelter in the house itself.

TOBIAS, R U ON HOLIDAY?

Tobias Kestel, White Elephant DesignLab ... I am sitting in our garden, constructing (...well, trying to construct) "something" ! I do not have skills and everything I try to put together just didn't with stand gravity ... But I am motivated. And I am absorbed for hours in what I am doing!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FREDERIC, R U ON HOLIDAY?

Frederic Collette, designer, Collect Furniture

I am originally from Belgium and all my childhood, I lived in Luxemburg. Here my mother remarried with a Dane when I was 4. Every summer after this, we spend about 1 month in Denmark. I remember it being so wonderfully exotic to me. I was fascinated by all those modern interiors, it felt so futuristic to me! I also loved the freedom: not being told what to do all the time and running around naked with the other kids playing and picking fruits and vegetables. All the adults were so easy going compared to back home. Turning 16 years old, I moved to Denmark with my mother, sisters and stepfather – never to leave again!

ILYA, r u on holiday?

Ilya, designer, kidsonroof

If girls like pink, boys love war. we cant refuse this fact. Paying visit to museum of military history, open air expositions, places of battles, even old Greek ruins was not enough. Anywhere. it could be my very favorite place. Simferopol (see picture town centre, me &T34 glorious soviet tank), an after Sevastopol, this Black Sea harbour have it all.I was at Crimea once. At that summer time gave my mother lessons to young geologists camps of Moscow university. Her teaching course was almost done, when my father and me arrived. It was late. We had an exiting journey: three hours by trolleybus to Sebastopol. I knew only short distance trips, but this. I was hyper exited and exhausted, I remember I was trying to tell my mom about all that everything I've seen. But I was only five years old.I read that pictures help to capture the memories. That's right. So pity, in 1972 we didn't make so many photographs like we do now. But specifically this picture is now supported by memory.
