Innovation:
The overall space design aligns with the building's existing conditions. Adhering to sustainable design principles, the architectural transformation centers around the relationship between the new and the old. Valuable elements of the original construction are preserved, with the main roof structure exposed and integrated with new additions, creating a interplay between the old and new. This blend of old and new volumes fosters a fluid, open spatial relationship.

Functionality:
By cleverly utilizing the building's height, the design team creates a two-story space that ensures brightness and transparency while diversifying the spatial functions. The overall layout is composed of three sections: the cafe at the entrance, the activity area in the middle, and the functional area at the back. This maintains the relative independence of each functional space, and also ensures an orderly circulation.

Creativity:
The furniture details within the space are thoughtfully crafted to provide a sense of security for pets visiting for the first time. Space is intentionally left under the seating areas to give small animals a safe spot to settle in and ease their anxiety in an unfamiliar environment. The suspended design beneath the movable central bench minimizes obstacles during play, allowing pets the freedom to run or rest. Fixed small round tables, designed with the function of anchoring dog leashes, free pet owners' hands, enabling them to chat and enjoy food at ease. The wall features pegboards, which serve both as retail displays and decorative elements. The space's flexibility is further enhanced by fully movable furniture, allowing for easy reconfiguration to suit different pet-themed needs.

Eco-social impact:
To create a natural texture in the building, materials such as washed stone, gravel concrete, granite cubes, textured paint and marine plywood are juxtaposed to infuse the building with life and a natural vibe. Rough washed stone is used for the indoor bar counter, seating, and flooring, creating a simple, natural aesthetic. The gravel concrete flooring and gray washed walls complement each other, enhancing the outdoor feel of the space. The rough textures provide a non-slip surface for pets, while also offering the durability and stain resistance akin to outdoor natural materials. The retail display walls and movable furniture system are constructed using a collage of marine plywood panels, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that complements the wooden ceiling. The clever selection of these materials, along with their natural weathering over time, will further enhance the building's texture.
