The Shovel Birdhouse by Jan Habraken is just that – a shovel with a birdhouse built into the handle.  A bird’s diet consists of seeds and worms.  With this birdhouse, the bird can wiggle his own worms out of the ground by simply landing on the house and letting the subsequent momentum do the work.  The birds gathering, pecking and enjoying their little birdy cafe.

The simple but stylish XI bookshelf by Gonçalo Campos is designed to be very simple to assemble, without the use of any screws or fixtures. Its assembly becomes very simple due to the very carefully placed fittings that allow for the parts to lock together, like a wooden puzzle.

Despite it’s dynamic look, this shelf is very sturdy, because of it’s X structure and the suspended vertical support, that holds the loose ends of the horizontal parts. The bookshelf fits perfect with the tinny little companion called Placa lamp – also designed by Gonçalo.
