The Swedish giant together with London designers has launched a new project that is good for the environment, not only because it promotes the culture of recycling and not waste, but because it gives shelter to wildlife.
Colored or all white, with the classic structure in the shape of a house or with very strange shapes, the birdhouses are ready and have been created on the occasion of the recent opening of an Ikea store in Greenwich, London.
Thanks to the project “Wild Homes for Wildlife”, the company has allowed local designers and artists to transform disused products, abandoned in warehouses or waste material, into houses for bees, birds, insects and bats that live at Sutcliffe Park.
Unique houses that are good for the environment because they help animal friends find shelter in the colder months and do not constitute waste, but are part of a circular economy system. Some are truly unique, like that of the artist Iain Talbot who created the “Bug Bud”, a bright blue egg-shaped structure made up of old Ikea chairs. One of the most incredible projects is "Honey I'm Home!" by the artist Hattie Newman, a colorful bee village created from a coffee table.
