Adorable Brick Habitats Are Mini Homes for Birds and Squirrels

When we spotted these adorable Brick Habitats at this year’s London Design Festival [5], we thought they looked awfully familiar. Upon further investigation it turns out we were right – we had see them before but at the time, they were just a glimmer in designer Chooi-leng Tan’s eye [6] (or computer, rather). The bricks have little pockets for greenery to flourish and also double as mini homes for birds and squirrels.
