Space-Saving Cat Houses

IKEA's LURVIG Cat House Fits Into Its KALLAX Shelving Unit

— September 28, 2019 — Art & Design
IKEA is now expanding upon the collection of products it offers for cats and dogs with inventive new additions to its LURVIG range like the LURVIG cat house. The cat house will be especially appealing to cat owners who have an IKEA KALLAX shelving unit in their home, as the cubic cat house is designed to fit neatly within one of its units. The space-saving design not only helps to keep the floor and walls free from clutter but also acknowledges that cats are likely to get into the KALLAX's cozy spaces whether there is a designated space for them there or not.

The new range of pet products also introduces similar solutions that are designed to work with IKEA furniture, like the smart cat house that slips over a MARIUS stool.
Trend Themes
1. Space-saving Pet Furniture - Opportunity for furniture companies to create pet furniture that can double as space-saving human furniture.
2. Tailored Pet Accessories - Opportunity for companies to create furniture items and accessories customized to fit larger pieces of furniture, such as shelving units, and to better fit the varied needs and preferences of pet owners.
3. Sustainable Pet Products - Opportunity for companies to create eco-friendly pet products that reduces clutter and fits seamlessly within a homeowner's existing furniture arrangements without sacrificing design and aesthetic appeal.
Industry Implications
1. Furniture - Innovative furniture companies can expand product lines to include space-saving, multi-functional pet furniture while also developing accessories that cater to pets and pet owners needs.
2. Pet Products - Pet product manufacturers can create a range of pet products that consider space-saving and eco-friendly, sustainable materials in designs that suit integrated home furniture arrangements and caters to varied pet owner preferences.
3. Eco-friendly Products - Opportunity for eco-friendly manufacturers to create sustainable pet products that reduce waste and clutter in crowded spaces while integrating seamlessly into a home furniture arrangement.
