As a dog owner, I have a dilemma. I can let the dogs on the sofa, or I can ban them to a dog bed on the floor. I like having my canine companions next to me on the couch. Their presence next to me is relaxing, and comforting. The dilemma is this, I like the dogs on the couch, but I don’t like the hair and dirt they leave behind. My solution so far has been to cover the couch with a sheet to protect it, and take the sheet off when guests come over.
So, what happens when you combine a sofa and a dog house? You get the Dog House Sofa by Korean designer Seungji Mun. This wooden and upholstered sofa features a small cubby to the side with a padded dog bed under the arm. The cubby is large enough for two small dogs or maybe one medium sized dog. Simple modern design with natural materials combine with a modern aesthetic to create something new and fun. OK, I’d still have to cover this with a sheet for obvious reasons, but I love the idea, and I’d love to replace the sofa in the TV room with one.
The Dog House Sofa is a brand-new product in the 1st collection of the emotional pet furniture brand ”m.pup.”
