Multifunctional Agility Desk Doubles as Your Dog’s Cozy Home

Let the Barkitecture begin!

Humans and dogs have lived in harmony with each other since time immemorial and the WFH situation has strengthened their bond more than ever. However, the problem arises when you are working from home and your dog doesn’t find an appropriate place to lurk around which can often lead to interruptions in your meetings. George and James Architects addressed this problem with Agility Desk which they’d be exhibiting at Barkitecture this year.

For those unfamiliar, Barkitecture is an architectural contest, a key part of the Goodwoof event, which invites selected international architects to design cutting-edge kennels and dog houses. With this year’s theme being ‘A Companion Piece – Dogs at Work,’ George and James Architects wanted to design something that maintains the consonance between a dog and a man while they are working simultaneously.

Enter Agility Desk, a multifunctional furniture that allows humans to work and also offers a place for dogs to snuggle, play and look for treats. “Not our usual fare but we love a challenge, and this was a fun design project we could all get stuck into. Our desk looks for positive ways for humans and dogs to remain close and interact throughout the day,” stated George and James Architects.

The Agility Desk primarily features a desk and two stools. The stools can be incorporated under the desk and feature an opening for your dogs to move about. One stool has a porthole-shaped opening while the other has a curvy opening suited for medium to large size pets. The desk, on the other hand, is big enough to sport your laptops and other office essentials. In addition, it features a pull-up drawer that houses other nitty-gritty essentials.

While we are still awaiting official comments from George and James Architects, it is safe to assume based on the pictures that the UK-based studio has also added a see-saw to the pet furniture. With all these features packed in a single piece, this would be one of the strong contenders for the Barkitecture 2023 prize.
