A “brutalist cat-flap” and a room dedicated to “feline enrichment” feature in our latest lookbook<\/a> rounding up seven homes<\/a> created with design-forward cats<\/a> in mind.<\/span><\/p>\n

Featuring cat tunnels, climbing frames and cosy cubbies, this lookbook demonstrates that providing your cat with a fun and stimulating home doesn’t have to mean giving up on good design.<\/p>\n

We’ve collected seven homes that have incorporated bespoke interior<\/a> features for their furry friends who deserve (and demand) the best.<\/p>\n

This is the latest in our lookbook series, which provides visual inspiration from Dezeen’s archive. For more inspiration, see previous lookbooks featuring light-filled basement homes<\/a>, striking kitchen islands<\/a> and stylish entrance halls<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Home extension, London, by VATRAA<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

This extension in north London features a “brutalist cat flap” and has been built with the bricks of the structure it replaced.<\/p>\n

Architecture studio VATRAA’<\/a>s aim was to minimise the introduction of new materials where possible in this project, so bricks<\/a> were reused and stained grey to match the home’s slate roof.<\/p>\n

The home’s grey palate continues with the implementation of a small arched concrete<\/a> tunnel granting outdoor access to the resident chief mouser.<\/p>\n
