Atelier HOKO

HABIT©AT is an inquiry into how street cats in Singapore inhabit the man-made spaces of the suburban landscapes. This publication explores the intrinsic relationship between cats and their surrounding, encouraging the viewing of our urban landscape not simply as public space but one charged with possibilities through the cats’ adaptive appropriation. Their ability to discern subtle qualities and identify ‘gifts’ from the surrounding is a wisdom that human beings can humbly learn from and apply to our own approach towards dwelling.

One of those books that make you feel that the authors had absolute fun in doing all the work to put together this piece of print. A wonderfully educational and humorous survey on themes and topics that are often overlooked but trigger casual conversations, HABIT©AT is for anyone who's fond of cats (or at the very least, cat memes!) and how hoomans and pets relate to each other (cohabitate!) through the lens of housing/architecture, specifically living in an HDB in Singapore. Would love love LOVE to share this with anyone who'd fondly geek out on the seemingly trivial, but delightful things that complete our day to day.

For sure, filed under: Stuff I Wish I Made (but Atelier HOKO has done a superb job that it just makes sense that this is in their portfolio :)))
