THE BIRD

The Lilac-Breated Roller has some key characteristics that make it unique. I tried to cater to these attributes in the following ways:

Circular floor plan - reflects the male's protective flight pattern of circling the nests

Central courtyard - symbolizes the tree hollows they use for nesting 

Three bedrooms - accommodates the average clutch size of 2–4 birds

Ground-floor patio - represents their diet of ground- dwelling insects

Second-floor balcony - serves as a lookout point, echoing the habit of perching high in trees to scout for food
