Annotation

This modular tile set was created to bring more life to urban housing estates. Urban birds and insects face many obstacles in these locations, and these tiles are a simple way to make life easier. Plus, their appearance will also enhance otherwise blank and monotonous house facades. They can be used not only on housing estates but also on any blank walls in and around cities, such as bridge structures or noise barriers. The set contains four tiles in two types, which are always mirrored to each other to form the desired relief. The tiles can be freely interchanged and stacked into different mosaics - so each location where they are used can be unique. The tiles are cast from lightweight concrete in a basic grey version but can be coloured in different shades.
