Studio Schicketanz's commitment to user-friendly, environmentally-conscious design is showcased in all of our work, including at the smallest of scales. Our dog house was designed with the previous users in mind: both our canine friends & their owners. The fully functional green roof slopes up from the ground, which exemplifies our "designing for the context" philosophy, while providing another area for doggy relaxation. From the motion-activated rooftop faucet for drink and irrigation, to the solar-powered fan for efficient cooling, the house is packed with sustainable & tech-forward amenities. Also considering ease-of-use for dog owners, the house swings open & a drain is built into the floor for easy cleanup. A drawer was added to offer storage for toys, treats, and other knick-knacks. We hope our functional and sustainable Doggy Dreamhouse offers an innovative approach to dog shelters, as we strive to do our part in caring for the environment and man's best friend.
The dog house was completed for the Carmel Canine Cottages Competition in California as part of a silent auction fundraiser to benefit the SPCA of Monterey County.
