chicken coop porn!
I don’t know about you guys, but over here at WORKSHOP8, we have all been crazy busy this summer! Crazy busy in the best way possible–working with awesome clients on really cool projects, and occasionally taking some vacation time here and there.
I recently took a quick trip home to Pennsylvania to visit my parents. While we were all relaxing in their backyard enjoying a beer, we let the chickens out of their coop to peck around the yard. First of all, I don’t know if you’ve ever really looked at a chicken, but they are hilarious. Their different mannerisms and personalities are so cute! Just like the little creatures that they house, chicken coops can have hilarious, cute, or even serious personalities of their own. Really taking the time to look at, and appreciate, the coop that my mom’s chickens live in inspired me to search the web for some more coops with personality.
First came Stair Porn, then there was Cabin Porn. Ladies and gentlemen, I give to you… Chicken Coop Porn! (For the love of God, do NOT do a Google Image Search for “Chicken Coop Porn,” this funky brand of architecture has not yet caught on.)
*For the record, the links to Stair Porn and Cabin Porn are safe for work and definitely worth checking out, I promise.
My parents’ chicken coop, complete with a stained glass window, wallpaper, and curtains.
This little beauty is The Nogg. Simple, modern, oh so cute, and manufactured in the UK.
Frederik Roije designed this chicken compound called the Breed Retreat. I love all of the volumes and the window in the nesting box! Check out his website; it’s full of beautiful, drool-worthy home goods.
The Chicken Chapel was created by Moscow Linn Architects in Boston during their Studio North workshop. I just love how the coop glows at night.
I love the bright colors and rooftop garden of the Kippenhouse Chicken Coop.
The Hen House created by Alex Wyndham Architecture features a butterfly roof that catches and stores rainwater. Pretty and multi-functional? Jackpot!
There ya have it! Our first installment of chicken coop porn. Send us images of your chicken coops–we’d love to see them!
