Douglas Barnhard of Sourgrassbuilt, a California-based workshop has been crafting inspiring furniture, birdhouses, and bread boxes with his family for years. Their designs are inspired by the modern architecture of mid-century and skate/surf culture in Santa Cruz. They use high quality repurposed materials purchased from the US to craft handcraft birdhouses that look more sophisticated than most of our homes.

Here we have organized some unique architectural birdhouses made by Sourgrassbuilt that you can display at your homes to attract different species of birds. According to their specifications, you can select the right one for you and add a magical mood to your home decor.

Pitched Birdhouse

It is the latest design made by Doug that features unique pitched open air roof just like mid-century homes. Constructed out of bamboo and outfitted with plywood face and roof, this unique birdhouse is covered in the dark gray laminate to reflect Kauai and modern style. It is great for decorating modern homes with compact birdhouse, having 8×6-inches 5×12.5-inches dimensions.
