Rescue
a doghouse designed for rescue shelters
Rescue is an easy to clean, construct and transport doghouse designed for rescue shelters. The purpose of this project is to provide a better life for dogs who often spend their time in poor conditions in overcrowded shelters that don't have enough space or money for individual dog houses. Inspired by the folding techniques of origami, Rescue is constructed from a minimal amount of elements, making it simple to assemble, disassemble and transport. The house can be erected without the need for nails, screws or glue. Its main component is made from polypropylene, an inexpensive, recyclable material with excellent physical and chemical properties, such as high degree of thermal insulation, lightweight, firmness, high chemical resistance and resilience to weather conditions
