​The title of this piece connects the term “bee hotel” to an overall shift in attitude of inviting biodiversity back into our built environments. After the exhibition 'More than Shelter', these sculptures/bee hotels will be placed in local community gardens and conservation areas to serve their function in providing shelters for native solitary bees to lay their eggs. The designs combine logs, a natural place for bees to lay eggs and build hives, with elements of traditional local and biomimetic architecture. This poses questions about what has and still could be lost: What if in the future all that remains of bees is their influence on human architecture?
