About Accordio Gæludýrahús
Accordio er færanlegt gæludýrahús úr sílikoni. Léttur búkurinn fellur saman eins og harmonikka, svo hægt er að bera húsið auðveldlega með sér í útivist og á ferðalögum. Sílikonyfirborðið er einfalt að þrífa. Með því að þrýsta á báðar hliðar er húsið þjappað saman í einn sjötta af upprunalegri stærð. Átta styrktir segulrammar veita byggingarlegan stöðugleika og halda samanfellda forminu saman, þannig að lögunin helst flöt og samanpökkuð. Efnispúði passar inni í samanfellda húsinu fyrir þægilegan flutning.

- Production Technology
- Accordio is made with silicone. Each magnetic frame (a total of 8) is reinforced for structural stability. Once collapsed, these frames adhere each other and keep it compact and portable.
- Design Challenge
- The biggest challenge was how to keep accordio in a flattened shape when it is collapsed. Several ways were explored such as snap buttons, strap and etc. Amongst them, magnetic frames were chosen to be an ideal solution as they could provide structural stability as well as visual clarity.
- Research
- Accordio is a design study about portable pet houses. The design explores the use of silicone for pet housing. The light-weighted and safe nature of silicone provides many potentials for a portable pet house.
- Inspiration
- Accordio was first inspired by my niece's silicone bowl plate. I was intrigued by its flexibility and portability. After some research, I found that silicone also has a fascinating collapsible feature, which was later adopted into a foldable house.
- Project Duration
- The project started in June 2020 in Calgary, Canada and finished in July 2020 in Banff, Canada.
- Operation Flow
- This silicone house can be compressed in a 1/6 size by pushing both sides. A fabric cushion can be conveniently fit into the collapsed form for portability.
