Symbiosis Cat House Residential Building

Symbiosis Cat House

Symbiosis Cat House is a residential building designed for a narrow urban site. The four floor house allows people with allergies and cats to live together. A vertical zoning strategy separates animal areas from human areas. A central atrium drives a passive stack effect that removes allergens without heavy mechanical systems. Dedicated exhaust units serve the litter zones. Uncoated concrete, fair faced brickwork and perforated metal treads limit dust and chemical emissions. A cat tower rises beside the stairs, keeping the household visually connected.

Symbiosis Cat House Residential Building by Happystudio has been featured as a creative representation of architectural design by the A' Design Awards. Symbiosis Cat House Residential Building earned the Silver A' Design Award in Architecture, Building and Structure Design in 2026. The A' Architecture, Building and Structure Design Award is a highly prestigious international design accolade which honors superior design of skyscrapers, museums, residential buildings, commercial complexes, educational institutions, religious structures, infrastructure designs, landscaping projects and more.
