Totally iconic, right? The symbol that has been pointing out places on google maps now gets a form in real life in the shape of a birdhouse. Why a birdhouse? Read on.

Shuchun Hsiao, the designer, compares the virtual google maps with the bird’s-eye view and states that “Birds, have the most real experience of google map. Birds can fly through the city, through streets. A birdhouse becomes their destination as google map does.”

We welcome the thought and hope to see birds enjoying their unique home as we walk by.
