This final project in the Prototype course, part of the Minor in Innovation and Creativity, focused on designing and constructing innovative habitats for solitary bees in collaboration with the MakerSpace. The project highlighted the materials and equipment available within the MakerSpace. Its goal was to address issues such as habitat loss, pollution, and climate challenges while promoting pollination and supporting local ecosystems.

Five groups developed unique designs focused on solitary bees’ needs. The teams incorporated a variety of materials such as bamboo, reeds, cardboard, and scrap wood to create efficient, eco-friendly, and weather-resistant structures. Key features included different tube sizes (3/8 and 5/16 inches) to accommodate various bee species, predator protection, and natural interiors to maintain a suitable environment for the pollinators. Designs also emphasized durability, with larger bases and overheads to protect from weather and attract pollinators through bright yellow accents and appealing names like “The Honeycomb” and “Bee Happy and Prosper.”

Each group aimed to combine functionality with sustainability. The teams spent time studying solitary bee habitats, utilizing minimal paint to preserve natural elements, and repurposing materials like scraps of wood. Some groups incorporated advanced techniques, such as wood lathe work and welding, to create innovative and long-lasting designs.

This collaboration highlighted the importance of solitary bees in pollination, their impact on ecosystems and agriculture, and the economic consequences of reduced crop yields. The project not only supported pollinator populations but also demonstrated the MakerSpace’s capability to design practical solutions for environmental challenges using creativity and sustainable practices.
