Architects, designers, and artists from all around the world have joined forces to participate in this project called “BowWow Haus” which aims to raise funds for the well-being of homeless animals. These creative people have designed unique dog houses and shelters as a part of a new exhibition that will be open to the visitors until April 26th in several London venues, where they will later be available to buy at a charity auction or via online bids.

This project is a collaboration with the Blue Cross, a pet charity that has been helping sick, injured, abandoned and homeless animals since 1897, American not-for-profit organization Outdoor Arts Foundation, which supports community-based creative engagement, and photographer Drew Gardner. The money that will be collected during this exhibition will hopefully make the lives of hundreds of animals a little bit easier.

Some of the dog houses were made by such creatives as internationally famous Zaha Hadid Architects, mosaic artist Ivan Djidev and multi-award winning designers Denizen Works. Scroll down to see them for yourself.

The two-step entry with the bowls for water and food are classy :) :)

I'm pretty sure that dog drives a BMW, doesn't drink wine that is less than $50 per bottle and likes showing off his walk in humidor.

This one cracked me up! It must be frustrating for the dog though. They can see the balls but can't get to them! Great for the owner though. You never have to go looking to find where they left their balls!

So close, and yet so far. __ Can he have a ball to chew on in his house please?

I'd be worried about the dog trying to dig out one of those tennis balls from the bottom to play with. XD!

I dont really like the design of this...why not just have a 1 layer of balls and it looks like theres a lot of unneeded space and very little space for the dog itself

Super cool, but it seems like the see through doorway might be hard for a dog to see... but my dog is half blind, so maybe just my dog.

Put this bed in Mork's house up above and your dog would be the envy of the Universe! ;) ;)

Are those suctions? This would be great if you and your dog were in a hurricane. Does it bounce?

Anyone else remember in Land of the Lost, the Sleestaks, and the things they came out of? This reminds me of those.
