"Bringing bird songs back to our urban villages"

The Singing Branch is a sustainable musical instrument as well as housing for the 21st century city-living sparrows.

Using existing lamp-posts in the urban fabric, the branches clip-on, to become beautiful "tree-like sculptures", while providing comfortable housing for sparrows.

The singing branch is made from moulded plywood, and supported by a carbon fibre reinforced plastic frame. It is economically designed to clip as a composition using the same single component.
