BEE PAVILION KASTEEL VAESHARTELT
Maastricht, Nederland
As a founding member of the beecollective, we contributed to the development of the skyhive, a construction that allows beekeepers to raise two beehives 6m above the ground. The skyhive enables the placement of bees in an urban environment with considerably less disturbance for the surrounding. A prototype was placed in the temporary Sphinx Park of the city of Maastricht. Later a more confortable version with a solar panel powered electrical motor was developed. This later version is certified for Europe and made more durable than the prototype.
