The Cabana Bee House: A Blend of Design and Functionality

Our journey to create the perfect bee house led us to Clifford Russell-Nichley, a talented motion graphic design student. Inspired by nature and contemporary interior design, Clifford’s modular hexagonal design offers the perfect blend of style and functionality. With covered cocoon storage and an overhang for weather protection, the Cabana Bee House is an ideal choice for younger generations, especially those living in apartments or small spaces.
