The bright color tone adopted in pop art makes the visual composition filled with a pleasant, fun yet gentle character just like home.

Based on the concept of games and geometry, the polygonal blocks are cleverly scattered in the space, creating a playground for the pets to play around and roam freely in between the private and public realm;

The gentle, harmonic warm colors, joined by the vivid yellow, green and orange brightly sprinting within, compose a free rhythm;

A wide, deliberately left open space, along with a huge spring board, vertically separates the space, where vivacity and tranquility can each find the place they belong, whilst the children’s restless nature can be satisfied.Eventually, all the fun and joy from the childhood memory flood back when wandering through the space.
