Sydney Basin’s Fairywren
Known as the Muruduwin to the local Eora and Darug people of the Sydney basin, the native Fairywren’s social and playful traits inspired this collection of expressive furniture designed by Elliat Rich.
The Fairywren is one of the few small native birds species who have successfully adapted to urbanisation. Like us, they are social beings that feed in small groups. They also have short bursts of activity during the day but don’t travel very far. These traits mirror the human activities of sitting and eating in public spaces.
