Home Design for Furry Family Members: As Seen on SFGate

Monday, June 7th, 2010

Check out our article (written for Houzz.com) featured on SFGate this Sunday in the Living section!

Below is an excerpt, click here for the full article titled Home Design for Furry Family Members.

It’s time to say goodbye to the carpeted cat tree and hello to more stylish solutions for living with pets. There is no reason that dog and cat beds should be eyesores in your home. All it takes is a little creative thinking to incorporate the needs of your animals seamlessly with the rest of your family.

Considering the needs of your pets when designing a built-in or remodeling your kitchen is a great way to provide function and style. Think about the practical issues: Always buy cushions with removable covers for easy washing. Don’t forget that dogs can have a difficult time on hardwood floors. Adding runners and area rugs will make it easier for them to get around and will provide soft places for hanging out.
