The layered exterior cloaks the small structure so visitors can observe birds in the adjacent Heron Pond without disturbing them.

Regardless, the digital fabrication project (designed by the students but carried out with their professors from Cobalt Office) took an approach that has enough layering and complexity so it looks like it belongs – even if it looks somewhat alien to us humans.
