PLYDEN- PETHOUSE
Free Time Thinking and Design

2020
This project came out of a small Instagram exercise to design a pet house. Working in between school projects these Instagram exercises are great to keep the mind working during breaks.
My goal was to create a cozy little space for dogs inspired a bit by the conventional doghouse shape with a slanting roof and a tiny nook on the side of the house to keep little toys and potential chew bones.
Definitely miss my dog now.
A little thought on how the house could be made- I was going through a YouTube submission for the Rockler wood bending competition where this couple made a chair by layering multiple thin plys and gluing them one on another with help of a sort of mould brace.

Here's the link to the video- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0wX5dFx6c0&t=462s
How my idea could possibly be made-
of course with some potential changes to the design according to the feasibility of the wood and it's manipulation.
