Every person has an innate craving to spend time in nature, as we get the psychological satisfaction of nature in general. Much research has been devoted to how beneficial nature of the effect on the human brain. The biggest emphasis was, of course, on the visual component, but this project has been given special attention to the sounds. The object is a structure that is close to nature, for the organization of a bird’s nest.

At the base of the object is an oak pot with climbing plants, which gradually envelops the copper rails that is gradually transformed into a nest as the plant grows.
A key element is the “speaker” for better dissemination of sounds of singing birds. Natural sounds make annoying city noises more bearable for residents of the metropolis, it is proved that such a sound therapy has beneficial effects on the human biological clock and helps keep in touch with nature in urban environment.

‘Orator’ became a part of ‘Naturalist’ – collective project of Russian product designers.
