Modern Pet Bed

When it comes to satisfy their own pets’ basic needs, it is common sense to think that owners do not care that much about appearance: what really matters is comfort, usefulness. Nevertheless, a small but not negligible niche of people with a totally opposite approach to this issue still stays on: their peculiar taste and care for aesthetics offer designers a unique opportunity to give vent to their own creativity for the development of interesting interior design tools, dedicated to a specific class of consumers, dogs and cats.
As a matter of fact, the unwillingness of some humans to let their pets sleep with them in bed, coupled with their attention for the integrity of their place’s design, have been stimulating many designers to create a totally brand new concept of pet bed. In particular, one catches the attention.

On the famous e-commerce platform etzy.com, where hand-made creations, as well as vintage pieces can be exchanged, these modern pet beds, daybeds and loungers have come out quite recently, immediately arousing big curiosity for their contradistinctive look. These interesting pieces of design, right complement in every modern metropolitan house, are the ideal solution for those who want comfort in a cool mood: their chic style will make them even cooler than their owners’ bed, for sure. Suitable for cats and small dogs, the peculiarity of these beds lies in the brilliant idea to apply iconic design to pet-sized furniture: a modern aesthetic touch that is able to satisfy dogs and cats’ needs, but also their human owners’ taste.

The dimensions of this object are not particularly relevant (25’’ x 19’’ x 7’’ without considering the headrest) and the design concept is basic and linear: cushions are blind tufted and top-stitched, filled with 2’’ of orthopedic memory foam, wrapped in polyester batting. The frame is made of stained solid hardwood (red oak), with faux leather straps reinforced with polypro webbing. The headrest can be removed or easily repositioned. The peculiar fabric can be customized, with the possibility, left to the buyer, to choose among black, espresso, or white faux leather, or charcoal micro-suede.

This interesting leisure tool follows up the evolving habits of both pets and owners’: while in the past the might prefer a stinky pile of dirty clothes to be used as a bed, nowadays many (wealthy) people seem to prefer to provide their own animals with something more that just mere comfort. Which means that bulky pet beds do not fall within their range of choices to satisfy this desire. This product catches the attention for being a perfect lower-scale reproduction of modern-style metropolitan furniture. Moreover, even if the design may sound like high price, the reality is different: the choice to use faux leather leads to a contained price, which makes this little jewel accessible to a wide domain of pockets. So what are you waiting for? Order one piece for your little Chihuahua and after just six weeks all your desires will be satisfied!
