Barkitecture- Housing Solutions for the Modern Dog!
I’ve been in the pet industry a long time and thought I’d heard it all… but wait… there’s more!
The other day, the Bark itectural Digest came across my desk! This group of architects designs and builds functional doghouses for their four-legged friends. The project was conceived to give architects a chance to display their creative skills and to help raise funds for charity.
I’ve seen a lot of dog houses, but nothing like these… here are my faves. But you can check them all out here .

Those are just great. I can’t imagine putting them outside, but much better than a crate to give the dog his own indoor space.

Those were very cool and artistic new designs. Hard Hats with fire hose is very simple yet so elegant.
