A Dog House Made of 1,000 Tennis Balls

From turfed roofs and ramps like the Studio Schicketanz Dog House, to the stylish and angular MDK9 Dog Haus, it seems like Fido is the primary beneficiary of all the great innovations in the house and home sector these days. Case in point–the CallisonRTKL Fetch House that was made to benefit the SPCA of Texas. This particularly unique dog house is comprised of a collection of 3D-printed modules that are designed to hold over 1,000 tennis balls to create a traditional dog house structure like the one you see here. Built as, “an opportunity to test our ideas and show that a bespoke design could be created and easily made available to the public via desktop 3D printing,” according to Brendan O’Grady, VP in CRTKL’s Dallas Office, this dog house is equal parts proof of concept and doggie barometer for what’s possible with modern engineering and manufacturing techniques.
