LUNARBOX: A Cat Home That Will Work with the Design of Your Home

Seoul-based design studio más came about when three product/industrial design graduates from Central Saint Martins and Northumbria University joined forces and their first project is designed for cats. LUNARBOX is a welcome deviation from the standard cat furniture on the market these days – you know, the carpeted towers, trees, and houses? Instead, LUNARBOX takes the idea of pet furniture and elevates it for those of us that are particular about interior design.

First, they asked themselves if cat furniture could be a design object that would harmonious work within the home and that led the trio to create LUNARBOX. The design comes about based on the fact that most cats like to feel secure by hanging out in certain spaces. So, they began with the shape of a box and cut out part of one of the corners for the opening. The idea is that the box can be used as a single unit or stacked and arranged into a playground for your cat to climb around on and chill. Strong neodium magnets keep the units connected when you put more than one together.

LUNARBOX is made of birch plywood and comes in three sizes and three different colors.
