La Casa dell' Uccello
East Boulevard, Cleveland, OH, United States
La Casa
dell'Uccello was commissioned for the Cleveland Botanical Garden and
installed on its grounds. The project is conceived as the reinterpretation
of the vernacular bird house form through the logic of origami-like folding.
This form is articulated as an envelope, a single sheet of perforated stainless
steel, which is cut and bent, creating access to an interior space. The vestige
of the iconic house facade remains, but is manipulated and multiplied, giving
the bird house an abstract, sculptural, and ethereal presence. Careful
consideration was taken in developing the sequence of folding in relationship
to the direction of the perforated pattern, which work together to heighten the
sense of material movement and folding action.
