This DIY desk chair has been designed and created by Simone Giertz as a seating solution for professionals spending extended periods working from home with a furry friend. The chair features a durable wooden construction that offers the perfect spot to sit while working and is equipped with an internal section for pets like small dogs or cats to cozy up. The top section is also paired with an extended cushion to offer pets a place to rest right next to their master.
The DIY desk chair was rendered in Fusion 360 into a 3D model before being constructed using CNC milling with plywood to make it ready for construction relatively quickly. The unit also features two small drawers hidden in the stairs to store essentials or even dog toys.
