The Fauna Plus DeSIGN company and its director, Keiji Hirose is a firm known for designing a custom home for 16 cats in Japan.
The heart of the designer home features a cat-climbing tree that serves as a spiral staircase leading up to a catwalk on the second floor of the unit.Other cat-friendly features of that home include:
*a cat-accessible loft that features skylights and windows;
*a multistage cube of shelves with cat beds; and
*a floor-to-ceiling scratching post column, wrapped in hemp rope.
The firm is experienced with dog-focused projects, too, as its two most recent projects involved the design of an indoor waterproof kennel for the home of two dachshunds and the remodel of an apartment that houses a basset hound.
Features of a dog-friendly home typically include proper ventilation to eliminate hair shed; odor absorbent materials; and a dog shower or toilet. Other dog-friendly home features include: dog-level peepholes in garden walls, pet-door installations in each room, outdoor courtyards in dense urban housing areas, and scratch-resistant flooring.
