Students design cat and dog houses for stray animals

University students, who want to draw attention to the shelter needs of animals with their social responsibility project titled “Together in Our Living Spaces: Let's Design Cat & Dog Houses Around Us!”, designed cat and dog houses.

Inspiring from the idea of how to improve the situation of cat and dog houses they see in their neighbourhood, university students made brand new designs. It is planned that the designs, which are made by considering the environmental conditions and the ergonomic conditions of cats and dogs, will be produced from materials that are suitable for the physical conditions of the context and will not harm the environment.
