← All real projectsFinished 2 × 3 ft spotted python backdrop

Three feet tall, with a whole trail to explore.

This 2 × 3 ft backdrop turns the full height of the enclosure into a connected rocky route. Shelves, planting and natural branches create different ways to travel through the space—and the resident spotted python has already begun putting the layout through its real-world test.

The best project photograph is always the one where the spotted python starts using the spaces shaped for them.

What we love about this one

The resident curled around the branch is the finishing touch no workshop photograph could supply—the route is no longer an idea; it is being used.
