Production Technology
The litter box is structured by a set of PP plastic panels made by injection molding technique, the roof is a changeable sisal mat that is magnetically connected to the box body, the cat door is a piece of polyurethane sheet cut in shape fixed onto the front panel by a plastic hinge.
Design Challenge
The first challenge is to understand cat behavior to truly design a good litter box. It is known when excreting the animal is in a vulnerable state, so they tend to find hidden places, so it has a tinted front and door to prevent light to go through. Another challenge is transport cost, we see flat pack as core criteria, we thought of using flexible material, and combined with the need for scratching from cats, we decided to make the curved roof out of sisal mat, one material that cats really love.
Project Duration
The project started in Shenzhen in April of 2022 and completed in Shenzhen in June of 2022.
Operation Flow
The product serves as a normal litter box in general, in addition to that the user can create their own little plant composition on the side of it. To scoop the litter, the user will have to roll up the sisal mat roof and scoop it from the top or the side. To clean the box, the user can take it apart and wash it separately and assemble it back when dried. The roof is designed to be changeable with two magnets connectors, so once it is worn out from cat scratch, the user can simply change a new one.
Research
Our study has shown that cat owners found it hard to purchase an ideal litter box from the market, the main reason is that most products neglected the fact that as a part of home furnishing the litter box has to look good. As other studies point out, symbolic meaning will help consumers appreciate products more, and we see the potential of the litter box as a focal point of space.
Inspiration
Growing up we loved to build tiny houses imagining living inside them. Inspired by such interesting activity and mindset, the Ocean-view was created to convert a litter box into something more interesting with a contemporary look that resembles to a vacation home. Referencing modern architecture, it has minimal form with a curved roof, beneath the cantilevered roof there is a planter box where customers can grow cactus or succulent plants inside, making it a scaled-down ocean-view villa for cats.
