Architecture for Dogs Exhibition Opens in Milan

The ADI Design Museum in Milan is hosting 'Architecture for Dogs', an exhibition curated by Kenya Hara that showcases innovative doghouses and pet-centric designs from renowned architects and designers such as Kengo Kuma and Shigeru Ban. The exhibition, running from December 3, 2024, to February 16, 2025, focuses on tailored structures that enhance the relationships between dogs and their owners, featuring unique designs like a maze for papillons and a hill-like structure for pugs. Each piece is crafted to meet the specific needs of different breeds, incorporating ramps, cushions, and vertical doghouses. The display is organized as a fluid system of islands, allowing visitors to engage with individual designs and explore the connection between architecture and pets. Additionally, Giorgio Armani has collaborated with Poldo Dog Couture to present a dog-focused capsule collection. Blueprints for the showcased designs are available online, encouraging visitors to create their own pet-friendly spaces.
