The outdoor <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/interactive-installation\/\">installation<\/a><\/strong> translates the nest-building behavior of the native Formosan wild boar into architectural form. The project is part of FENG\u2019s ongoing Nest Plan series, which investigates the construction practices of animals and reinterprets them through human craftsmanship and building materials. By studying the boar\u2019s instinctive nesting methods, FENG develops a structural system that reflects both the animal\u2019s habits and its spatial logic.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Constructed from locally sourced Japanese <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/wood-and-timber-architecture\/\">cedar<\/a><\/strong> and Makino <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/bamboo-architecture-and-design\/\">bamboo<\/a><\/strong>, the installation draws from two behavioral patterns: the piling of dry grass and branches to form a protective enclosure, and the animal\u2019s tendency to rest inside the nest while facing the entrance, a posture of alertness to the external environment. These observations are translated into a series of interlocking pentagonal and hexagonal frames that overlap from front to back, forming a semi-spherical enclosure reminiscent of a curled body at rest.<\/p>\n<p>all images by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/fixer.com.tw\/index#\/\">FIXER Photographic Studio<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">Layered bamboo and wood structure shapes FENG\u2019s\u00a0installation<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Around the wooden framework, bamboo branches wrapped in white tape create a layered surface that references the texture of wild grasses. The interplay between the rigid geometric structure and the loose, fibrous exterior gives the work both architectural order and organic fluidity. Inside, a circular arrangement of benches defines a shared central space. The interior provides shade and seating, while encouraging visitors to experience the sense of concealment and attentiveness found in the animal\u2019s nest. The installation serves as both a small gathering point for outdoor activities and a quiet resting place within the forest park.
