We've rounded up five coops where chickens rule the roost, from a wooden hut in Turkey to Kengo Kuma's black pavilion at Casa Wabi.
Istanbul-based studio SO? built this chicken coop raised on stilts with oak plywood, oxidised metal panels and a corrugated metal roof.
It is in Turkey at Palanga farm, which is run by artist Kutluğ Ataman, and features a modular design so additional units can be added later if needed.
