The Haven Homes project aims to convince large-scale real estate developers to build more pet-friendly homes and to adopt the concept of Broad Appeal Specialty Housing (BASH)—a mutually beneficial strategy to reduce problems caused by growing homeownership costs.
As an example, we have developed several new animal-centric architectural concepts that would benefit not just the people and pets who will live in these homes, but also the property owners, which makes these features financially viable for rental properties and affordable housing projects.
To prove these claims, we are building housing complexes that model how several pet-friendly features can be cost-effectively incorporated into new commercial multi-family apartments as well as existing homes.
The first of these complexes is Lion Canyon: A quiet enclave of 11 boutique homes conceived on the idea that pets are essential members of the household, and as such designed to take care of the needs of cats as well as the humans who live with them.
