The design of Cat Wonderland prioritizes both the comfort of the owner and the well-being of their feline companions. The smooth traffic flow throughout the house is enhanced by carefully designed cat caves, litter areas, and cat jumping platforms at each passage. These thoughtful additions create a pet-friendly environment where the cats can roam freely and enjoy their own spaces.
One of the standout features of Cat Wonderland is the colorful terrazzo flooring in the entryway. The engravings of five cats on the floor add a playful touch and make the home feel welcoming. The living room, adorned with beige and white tones, exudes a sense of peace and tranquility. Wooden grooves on the wall, arranged in a sequential pattern, outline the main TV wall, while transparent glass at the outer edges adds depth and serves as a semi-decorative screen for the entrance.
The wall behind the sofa is designed as a playground for the cats. A fun jumping platform allows them to freely jump up and down, while cat beds and cat paths provide ideal hiding spots. These elements bring the playground for fur babies to life, ensuring that the cats have their own space to play and relax.
In the bedroom, the warmth of wooden elements adds a stable note to the peaceful sleeping environment. Delicate wooden grooves on the facade, with curved edges, create a smooth rhythm. Orange-yellow light strips buried at the junction of materials offer a warm and comfortable atmosphere for a good night's sleep.
The kitchen and bathrooms in Cat Wonderland also underwent significant transformations. In the kitchen, the removal of excessive cabinets and the enlargement of windows allowed more natural light to flow in, enhancing the brightness of the space. The bathroom features a seamless coating that is easy to clean, replacing traditional tiles. The minimalist design with clean, sharp lines creates a pure and refreshing feeling, perfect for washing away the fatigue of the day.
Cat Wonderland was completed in September 2021 in Taipei City, Taiwan. The design team, led by JTS Interior Design, carefully considered the needs of both the owner and their cats, creating a harmonious and pet-friendly living space. The project was awarded the Iron A' Design Award in 2022, recognizing its well-designed, practical, and innovative qualities that contribute to a better world.
With its unique blend of elegance, functionality, and pet-friendly features, Cat Wonderland truly stands out as a remarkable residential house that caters to the needs of both humans and their furry companions.
