Conjoin
Conjoin is a cat cafe concept that allows people to establish an open, authentic connection with cats. It offers a space for cats and humans to interact, offering visitors a reprieve from the stress of busy urban life.
The design concept is inspired by the body of a cat, represented within the triangular shape formed by the ways they sit, their ears and their feet. After combining the shapes, a geometric pattern with triangles is formed, linking the parts to showcase the connection between them. This echoes the purpose of the cat cafe which encourages interactions between humans and cats.
