In Praise Of Nests and Other Things

这个在海边的鸟巢由Northumbria大学的学生Thomas Savage提出，可以建冬天为鸟类提供栖息地，夏天则成为水上活动爱好者的居所。他的这个概念设计位于Blyth的海滩，这是北英格兰的一个港口城市，这里原本的工业有所下滑，所以当地当局积极推动可持续发展的技术和活动。
Savage介绍说：“这个设计会成为一个临时的、不断变化的鸟类博物馆，我发现这里有一个鸟类协会和一个水上活动社团，他们在不同的季节特别活跃。而我意识到我可以把这两者结合起来做出些什么。”他提出在海边沙滩上建一系列的九层高的建筑，有钢管脚手架和其上的混凝土小屋构成。在夏天和秋天，作为水上运动者的营地，供他们准备食物和存放装备；而冬天和春天，这里就成了鸟类的庇护所。鸟类可以通过建筑屋顶隧道状的开口，进入建筑内；鸟类观察者们可以在周围的楼梯和平台上观察它们。附近的岸上还会有一个游客中心。这个项目是Savage建筑学位设计的一部分，导师是Sebastian Messer。

These towering seaside structures imagined by Northumbria University student Thomas Savage would offer habitats for wild birds in winter and house water sports enthusiasts during the summer. Thomas Savage developed the concept for the coastal stretches outside Blyth， a port town in northern England where industrial industries are in decline and the local community is keen to promote more sustainable technologies and activities.
"The brief was to produce a museum with hostel accommodation，" Savage said. "I found out that the town already had both an ornithological society and a water sports community. Both are active in different seasons， so I realised I could bring them together." He proposes a series of nine-storey hostel towers along the beach， comprising steel scaffolding and concrete cabins. In the summer and autumn seasons these spaces would form a campsite， with communal areas for preparing food and storing equipment， while during the winter and spring the cabins would be boarded up to create protected nesting areas. Birds would access the spaces through tunnel-like openings in the roof and birdwatchers would be able to climb up around the surrounding staircases and platforms. A visitor centre would be located nearby， on the banks above the promenade. In Praise Of Nests and Other Things is the graduation project for Savage's Part I architecture degree at Northumbria University， under tutor Sebastian Messer.
