The project will present both new projects as well as existing ones – such as Dziupla (The Hollow) designed by Menthol Architects for passerine birds. As the architects say:
The subject of environmental protection is very important to us. We created the first breeding tower for swifts in Poland, which brought our attention to the issue of their protection. The project for passerines was inspired by observations in a nearby park. We wanted to refresh the typical image of nesting boxes and draw attention to the problem of the declining bird population in the city.
Designers taking part in the exhibition: Agnieszka Bar, Anna Szuflicka, Anna Łoskiewicz-Zakrzewska, Zofia Strumiłło-Sukiennik, Krzysztof Benke, Tomasz Korzewski (Beza Project), Asia Piaścik (Dingflux), Marta Niemywska-Grynasz, Dawid Grynasz, Małgorzata Ćwiek (Grynasz Studio), Monika Brauntsch (Kafti), Ewa Bochen, Maciej Jelski (Kosmos Project), Agata Kulik-Pomorska, Paweł Pomorski (Malafor), Marcin Pogorzelski (Mapog), Liliana Krzycka and Rafał Pieszko (Menthol Architects).
