If you're looking to spruce up your home but are not committed to bringing a full spruce into your home (har-dee-har-har), then I suggest you take a good look at this design titled 'Nest (Home Part 2).'
Created by Dutch artist Wannes Goetschalckx, Nest (Home Part 2) features more than a few birdhouses stacked and arranged cleverly into a tree. But this project isn't just for looks; representing the problems of urban overcrowding, it is currently being displayed in Amsterdam's Galerie West.
