The 'Cat Couch' concept has been designed by Tomoya Ono as a piece of modular furniture for the modern living space of cat owners to keep everyone comfortable, while also preventing fur from being left everywhere by felines.
The couch is constructed with a clever design that features a dedicated spot for the cat to sleep along with additional areas for the owner that fold down when not in use. This will prevent the cat from making the entire couch their own personal space to sleep and thus ensure that the entire furniture piece is kept ready for human use at all times.
The 'Cat Couch' concept will also enable the dedicated cubic cat seating section to be shifted onto the floor when more space is needed or even to use it as a footrest.
