Yoh Komiyama is using hardwood to design minimalist cat climbing toys that are as visually pleasing for the pet owner as they are for the pet.
While owning a cat is a joyous experience, it comes with a variety of unpleasantries -- bulky cat furniture and toys, being the most common. Komiyama understands this, as the artist created a gorgeous, multi-level cat climbing house that was inspired by the modernist architectural movement. While a cat is inside this space, it serves as a private abode. Meanwhile, the structure stands as a decorative object for the home owner to display with pride.
To top the design off, Yoh Komiyama's structure is finished with a marble base, making for an elegant and durable addition to one's home.
