Pet accessories design,  if such a thing exists at all, lies somewhere on the same level as cheap children’s furnishing: slightly kitschy, overloaded with patterns and colours, and a little infantile. Even if at the luxury end of the assortment, products look harsh and suggest a fake flamboyance - maybe because the target audience, i.e. the owners are a little bit like that themselves. High-end pet stores are full of diamond embellished collars, velvet cushions, fluffy carrier-bags, that surely satisfy quite a few pet owners. But what about the design-conscious (and probably more animal-friendly) keepers?



Let’s suppose you’ve just finished decorating your apartment with the latest designer furniture, all made of high quality natural materials, featuring bright colours and clean modern shapes - and you happen to have a cat or two. What are your and your feline friends’ options for a sleeping solution that is good-looking enough for you, and comfy enough for them? Not much, really...this is what Aude Snaches recognised and what made her establish Meyou, a company specialising in cat cocoons. Collaborating with industrial designers, the brand has just released their first collection comprising of 3 designer catbeds.



As the names The Bed, The Cube, and The Ball suggest, all pieces are based on simple geometric shapes that go well with today's minimalist designer furnishings. Being manufactured in France and using only high quality wood and cotton, the beds are of exceptional quality and provide the maximum comfort for your pets. According to the owner, Meyou presents the chance to "create a bond between our cats' comfort and our own love for design", something that is not essential, but definitely makes our lives more beautiful.
