The Design

About Saturn Cama para gatos

Saturn é unha cama para gatos con forma de caseta redondeada de madeira para fogares modernos. A forma está construída con pezas triangulares de madeira sobrante, ensambladas á maneira dun balón de fútbol, de modo que os recortes da produción de mobles se reutilizan e se reduce o desperdicio de material. Unha gran abertura permite que o gato entre, mentres que dous buracos máis pequenos nos laterais permiten que o propietario interactúe coa mascota. O interior está rematado con pintura escura para crear un espazo tranquilo e confortable. Saturn mide 480 por 409 milímetros.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Unique Properties: Saturn is a pet house with a modern style. Making full use of surplus materials of modern wood processing, this product reduces material waste and adheres to the maxim of sustainability. Moreover, it integrates elegance and utilization for a stunning view of modern home space.
Dimensions & Packaging: 480*409mm
Production Technology: In terms of processing techniques, we imitate the way how the footballs are assembled, i.e. using triangles to assemble a round shape. This technique helps us make full use of and reprocess the surplus materials, thus reducing the waste during processing.
Design Challenge: The challenge lies in how to create a cozy environment for cats. Saturn is designed with two holes on either side for better interaction between the pet and its owner. In addition, based on the nature of pets, this product employs dark painting for a comfortable living space.
Research: The study shows that pet housewares are a hit in the household industry. Saturn can perfectly blend in with the modern household decoration, which caters for the nature of cats and uses quality wood material for security and comfort during usage.
Inspiration: The design team is inspired by the surplus materials during the production of modern furniture, which is premium in quality but cannot be reused for its sizes. Thus, they refer to the football and assemble the wood into a regular round shape.
Project Duration: Started in March 2021 in Beijing, this product was finished in November 2021 in Henan Province and was exhibited in Caochangdi Art District, Beijing.
Operation Flow: The cat can enter the pet house through the large hole, while the owner can interact with the cat via the holes on either side.
