Working in collaboration with Yoshiharu Tsukamoto (Atelier Bow-Wow) and Nader Tehrani at Tokyo Tech, the Umbrella House was a research conducted by a group of 4th year and graduate students investigating animal shelters of various species, looking at different material technologies and construction systems. The Umbrella House re-purposes the myriad unused umbrellas of Tokyo, aggregating them to produce a larger temporary shelter for sparrows, now overtaken by arachnids.
