Using a home-made mixture of bioluminescent resin, Miya Ando meticulously coated a thousand leaves and floated them in a small pond. During the day, the coating absorbed light energy from the sun.

Once night arrived, each leaf could be seen emitting miraculous hues of blue and purple.

Japanese designers, Nendo, created a birdhouse that’s for more than just the birds.

Our treehouse is collective housing for many birds and one person. On one side, the treehouse has entrances to 78 nest spaces for birds. The other side has an entrance for one person, who can look into the birds’ nests from inside the treehouse.

You can hangout with giraffes at the Giraffe Manor, a luxury hotel in Kenya. The hotel is located on 12 acres of private land within 140 acres of indigenous forest. The manor is also home to warthogs, dik dik, bushbuck, and 180 species of birds.

Drawing by Mark Nystrom using wind 

I cut some plastic bottles into different shapes and tied each one to a stick in the snow. Left all day to blow in the wind, the plastic cut into the snow making a record of the day’s wind conditions. Wanting a more permanent record, I constructed an apparatus to suspend a pen outfitted with sails over paper.
