动物建筑师有证据表明动物和人类一样欣赏开创性的设计。这项慈善活动邀请了洛杉矶的一些顶级建筑师和设计师参加2016年的慈善活动，为需要躲避这些元素的野猫建立了家园。

当然，这并不是明星第一次把他们的技能借给忠实的毛茸茸的朋友。日本平面设计师肯尼亚哈拉在2012年创立了狗的建筑。

对于“动物建筑师”，12家公司捐赠了精彩绝伦的设计，满足了街头猫的功能和社会需求-其中包含了一些有趣的元素，比如内置的喂食碗、串玩具、一个“奖杯”式的老鼠展厅或一个活鱼缸-同时，它们仍然吸引着人们的眼球。

在优秀的和古怪的结构中，标准建筑设计建造了一个自加热遮蔽物——加利福尼亚CuCube——设计成了一个理想的条件。从再生木材和混凝土建造的避难所陷阱热白天，并释放它在夜间的凉爽；同时，可动木百叶窗工作如百叶窗，让新鲜空气流通，如果它的居民感到需要。对于更有文化的猫，菲佛合作伙伴的建筑师“Teatro de Gato剧院”（猫剧场）允许猫科动物在他们自己的舞台上成为聚光灯下的机会。

莱斯利·法雷尔(LeslieFarrell)，动物建筑师协会的创始人，在2009年开始拿起电话邀请建筑师和设计师来建造和捐赠设计。它现在是洛杉矶设计日历上最受欢迎和最独特的活动之一。“我一直是建筑、设计和艺术家的粉丝，”她说，“我决定致力于创建一个活动，把这些世界聚集在一起，并最终提供新的方式来提高人们的意识，帮助那些受苦的动物。”

这些庇护所在3月的一次售罄的慈善活动中揭幕，所有的收益都捐给了FixNation，后者提供医疗服务，并在整个洛杉矶县为无家可归的猫喷洒或绝育。

The designs address both the functional and social needs of street cats—incorporating playful elements, such as built-in feeding bowls and string toys - while still appealing to the human eye. Pictured: A sophisticated design by HOK

Leslie Farrell, Founder of Architects for Animals, started picking up the phone in 2009 to invite architects and designers to build and donate designs. Pictured: A felted dream by Formation Association and Buro Happold

‘I have always been a fan of architecture, design and artists,’ she says. ‘I decided to devote my effort to create an event that would bring these worlds together and ultimately provide new ways to raise awareness and help animals that are suffering.’ Pictured: A home that even humans would covet by RNL Design

The shelters were unveiled at a sold-out benefit in March, with all of the proceeds going to FixNation, who provide medical care and spray/neutering of homeless cats throughout LA County. Pictured: An all-wood design by CallisonRTKL

A selection of the donated shelters will be available to buy by auction soon on Ebay. Pictured: A modular home by Perkins+Will
