About Polkota Kattemøbelmodul
Hvis du har en katt, har du sannsynligvis hatt minst to av disse tre problemene mens du valgte et hjem til henne: mangel på estetikk, bærekraft og komfort. Men denne anhengsmodulen løser disse problemene ved å kombinere tre faktorer: 1) Minimalismedesign: enkel form og variasjon i fargedesign; 2) Miljøvennlig: treavfall (sagflis, spon) er trygt for kattens og hennes eiers helse; 3) Universitet: modulene er kombinert med hverandre, slik at du kan opprette en egen kattleilighet i hjemmet ditt.

- Production Technology
- The base of the main part is made of a 20 mm thick laminated osb board (MDF is also possible). In the back part (the one that will be adjacent to the wall) there is a 150 mm x 38 mm x 7 mm recess for the fastener part. The 8 mm thick flexible Ceiba plywood part is fastened along the perimeter of the base using confirmats with pre-cut notches under the 5 mm deep rails. Another 8 mm thick layer of Ceiba is glued on top to cover the flat bars of the confirmations. The Ceiba part is painted with a graphite matt paint. The front panel can be made of plywood or mdf 8-10 mm thick. It can be painted with glossy white paint in the basic version or any ral color as desired by the customer.
- Design Challenge
- The most difficult part was technical. To find modern environmentally friendly materials and think about how to fix the parts. During the development process, it was decided to create an original fixture for hanging the module on the wall.
- Research
- Type of research: applied research. The aim of the study was to identify the owners' requirements for cat houses and the individual needs of their pets. The research was conducted in the form of surveys and interviews with owners of cats that have 2 and more pets. In addition to surveys and interviews, images of existing analogs on the market were also used. As a result of the research, several gaps were identified such as aesthetic appearance, no trash when used, ease of cleaning, etc. The research made it possible to create a product that meets the main stated needs of the consumer.
- Inspiration
- Many cat owners are faced with the need to provide a comfortable environment for their pets. This is especially true for those who keep two or more cats. The cat hierarchy, the love of high surfaces and secluded areas are all integral parts of a cat’s life. And among the samples on the market, there is quite a low percentage of those that allow the buyer to create his own, suitable for him composition. The module was inspired by the shape of a cat curled up in a ball of wool.
- Project Duration
- The project started in April 2019 and finished in June 2019 in Moscow
- Operation Flow
- The module designed to be hanged on the wall to save place on the floor and give the opportunity for your cats to climb higher. It is easy to combine your own composition by using the 4 module’s details. If after some time you want to change the composition – just move the fixture parts on the wall to the new places.
