This post modern dog house utilizes a modern vocabulary of ‘folding geometric planes’ in solid and implied ways. The origamic approach is made through the tactile materials of folding steel, sail cloth and a wood floor ground plane. The enclosure wraps up and over while remaining open and playful in nature with a tennis ball “play wall” and a solar-powered water dish. The soft material of the dog bed, open wall design and sail cloth shade planes allow for the cool respite in the summer while also maintaining a place to shelter in inclement weather.
