Mingzhu Nerval, small vertical garden, Private Apartment in Paris, 2023

Our passion has always been to bring the beauty of nature into the heart of urban environments, striving to create living spaces where architecture and nature coexist. In this private apartment in Paris, our vertical garden has attracted a little baby bird. This unexpected visitor has become a symbol of fortune, reminding us of our founding motto: “birds singing through architecture.”

We discovered a little baby bird nestled within the lush foliage of our living wall. Its presence felt like an affirming of our dedication to bring nature closer to urban dwellers. With tender care, we embraced this unexpected visitor as an opportunity to fulfill our mission in a more intimate and personal way.

Determined to give the baby bird the best chance at thriving, we embarked on a journey of fostering. With each passing day, we observed its growth, fed it a diet suited to its needs, and provided a safe space for it to explore and spread its wings.

Our cat and the foster bird have formed a friendship as well, happily coexisting and bringing joy to our home.
As we witnessed the bird’s resilience, it strengthened our resolve to continue weaving the beauty of nature into the fabric of architectural design.
