• Lot Description
  Before jumping into a design for the Eastern Screech Owl, we had to learn a bit more about our client and their taste. Eastern Screech Owls are on the smaller side and typically grow to be only 6-10 inches tall. Their babies like to live at the bottom of their nest, typically a tall volume like a hollowed out tree. Our clients also provided us with some inspirational images. We noted that they tend to like white materials with natural wood accents that highlight openings. As we sketched, we played with how large the opening can be and ways to design the interior. We designed a recessed entrance and an entry porch for our clients to rest and enjoy their view. The interior of the home features notches for owlets to climb out of the bottom of their home. Our clients are secondary nesters so the home will be pre-furnished with sticks and wood shavings. A backdoor entrance is used for housekeeping and to re-furnish the space for the next generation. Details for the home include a recessed bottom panel and mitered sides for a smooth finish. After finalizing the design, we presented the owl house to Braxton Alexander. He used stucco and The Hudson Company’s Reclaimed Ash to build this future Eastern Screech Owl home.
