Caitlin O'Donnell
As a creative thinker and natural problem solver, I've always been drawn to design. I create products with a strong focus on aesthetics and user-centered solutions, constantly pushing creative boundaries. I believe design has the power to turn ideas into impactful experiences, and I'm always exploring new ways to innovate and collaborate to make a real difference.
Dog-Friendly Furniture
Current dog-friendly furniture lacks versatility, aesthetic integration, and a true balance between pet comfort and household functionality. This project challenges conventional pet furniture by exploring how design can foster a stronger bond between dogs and their owners while enhancing modern living spaces. The goal is to create a multifunctional solution that seamlessly integrates pet-friendly features without compromising style or practicality. It will focus on durable materials, customisable design elements, and integrated storage. Traditional pet furniture is often takes up unnecessary space: this project aims to prioritise stability, efficiency, and seamless integration, rethinking how pet-friendly furniture can serve as both a functional and emotional asset in the home. It aims to push design boundaries, ensuring that pets are not just accommodated but actively considered in furniture innovation.
