The Napper

Drawing inspiration from an iconic local building, the Nasher Sculpture Center, designed by Renzo Piano, “The Napper” uses similar materials and form.  Designed to be an interior doghouse, the Napper is made of materials that can fit in any home.  Similar to the Nasher Sculpture Center, the Napper’s scale and form is simple and elegant.  The materials and form of the Napper lead to easier constructability, as they are commonly used materials with low lead times and common construction methods.
