Tiny House And Birds

If you’re in search of a unique glamping experience, this whimsical pod on the banks of the Loire river estuary may be for you. Mr. Plocq’s Caballon is a sort of steampunk tiny house inspired by the 19th-century naturalist and 'bird charmer' Émile Plocq. The egg-shaped pavilion was imagined as a flying ship that carried friendly birds to transport Plocq on his research trips.
It was designed by architects Aurélie Poirrier, Igor-Vassili Pouchkarevtch-Dragoche, and Vincent O’Connor for its yearly 'Imaginary Nights' festival, which allows visitors to spend the night in a temporary retreat along the Loire from May to October.

The pod was created using carpentry techniques taken from both shipbuilding and aircraft construction. Its egg-like form's curved framing simultaneously resembles a boat's curved hull and a century-old airship interior. The studio’s bottom half is bentwood, while the top is covered in canvas and thick transparent plastic for the 'cockpit' window. The egg opens with a double swing door, the lower half containing steps. The pod contains the main room with a double bed and a small bathroom accessed via a curved 'shower airlock'”
