Introduction
Home & Heart Rescue is a high-end animal shelter designed to provide support to those
with disabilities. The design incorporates animal-assisted therapy as a way to create bonds between
potential adopters and pets. The facility is also designed to engage the community by including
retail and event space.
Field Research
A successful shelter, One of A Kind Pets in Akron, Ohio, was observed. Upon entering
the shelter, I noticed the retail area, where items were organized by animal-either cat or dog.
Everything needed to adopt a new pet is available to purchase such as collars, leashes, food,
litter, litter boxes, and dog beds. Having necessities accessible to those wanting to purchase a pet
unexpectedly is a smart strategy. Retail areas in shelters reduce the ability for visitors to not
adopt a pet due to a lack of supplies. These areas also create an economic convenience factor,
potentially boosting sales for the shelter. One of the more obvious observations at the shelter is
the separation of cats and dogs. One of A Kind Pets has about five cats in a single room of seven
feet by nine feet. Also in these rooms are tiny windows, a litter box, multiple food bowls, and a
chair for visitors. One of A Kind Pets has miscellaneous cages spread throughout the facility
with cats that are either special needs or have feline-leukemia, prohibiting them from being
around other felines. In the dog portion of the shelter, there are about eight rooms, each
containing a single dog. These rooms are bland with a concrete bench, few toys, and a bed for
the dog. The shelter facility also has a minimum of two offices, custodial and storage rooms,
laundry rooms, and a fenced in yard.
Following the research experience at One of A Kind Pets, I interviewed three people who
have experience with shelter pets and facilities. Samantha Dorland, a pound keeper for
2Tuscarawas County, has provided insight on how animals could be comfortable in their shelter
areas. Dorland noted a main priority for the safety of shelter animals is better enclosures. When
asked for further detail, she stated the Tuscarawas pound utilizes fencing to separate the animals.
She felt sometimes dogs need more privacy than the fence allows but still require visual contact
with other dogs between their enclosures.
Haylee Meinhart, an active volunteer at shelters, discussed ideas on how shelter life could
improve. She stated shelter animals need more interactive activity. Oftentimes, abandoned
animals are placed in small rooms, waiting to be adopted. The animal to staff ratio, particularly
in larger shelters, is a major issue, making it difficult for shelter animals to receive proper
attention. Increasing the amount of volunteerism will relieve this problem. Creating ways to
encourage the community to visit the shelter will influence more people to volunteer. Some
examples are fraternity and sorority socials, fundraisers, team building seminars, and birthday
parties. On a design note, Meinhart believes shelter animals would benefit from a living
environment with less concrete flooring.
Melissa Scheurger volunteers often at shelters and has adopted shelter pets. She
recognized an animal’s need for more time out of their cages with a larger area to play.
Scheurger agreed with many of the same issues as Dorland and Meinhart.
Another question asked of the three respondents was how more animals could be
adopted. Dorland noted creating a bond is the most simple, yet effective way animals could be
adopted. Unfortunately, many animals are unable to bond because they have so much pent-up
energy from being confined to a small cage. The animals also do not have enough personal space
and time with a potential adopter. A simple method increasing adoption rates mentioned by
Dorland is better presentation of the animals. Well-groomed animals are more appealing to
3potential adopters. Meinhart found people understand that abused and mistreated animals are just
as capable of giving love as any other animal. Scheurger noted educating adopters about the
personalities of shelter pets could lessen bias towards older animals and popular breeds,
improving adoption rates. Dorland mentioned the importance of a visible shelter location and
ADA accessibility in attracting people to visit shelters. Proper advertising and social media also
impact larger visitor rates. Meinhart and Scheurger had similar opinions, though Meinhart also
stated the importance of community events. She suggested the shelter to be represented at
community events not only to raise awareness, but also to create events at the shelter to
physically bring people to the site.
Research
Animal shelters can be seen in communities all over the world from inner city humane
societies to high-end shelters in the countryside. These facilities cater to the nearly 6.3 million
companion animals displaced each year: 3.3 million dogs and 3.5 million cats (Pet Statistics).
Millions of people visit shelters, looking to give an animal a forever home, making location a
major consideration in constructing an animal shelter. Top animal shelters and pet hotels tend to
be in larger cities, focusing on affluent markets. Popular locations are Munich, Las Vegas, Hong
Kong, and New York City. With this in mind, Home & Heart Rescue will be located in London.
London has a population of eight million. The economy in London is large enough to sustain an
animal shelter with high-end design, having nearly 17% of The United Kingdom’s gross
domestic product, a measure of the nation’s overall economic activity (The Development of
London’s Economy).
The number of animals adopted yearly could increase by showing potential owners the
benefits these pets could have for their families through animal assisted therapy. According to
4Good Therapy, animal assisted therapy is a psychotherapy process incorporating animals into
mental healthcare and focusing on relationships created between humans and animals. Shelter
animals are beneficial for owners in a variety of ways. Shelter animals decrease stress and anger
levels, lower heart rate and blood pressure, through the release of beta-endorphins (Animal
Assisted Psychotherapy). An animal shelter designed to focus on animal assisted therapy would
not only lead to greater adoptions rates for these sheltered pets, but also assists those struggling
with different disorders and diseases. The facility designed with all occupants, both human and
animal, in mind creates a space that allows these bonds to be created.
An undergraduate project influenced additional research on the impact of space upon
people with disabilities. One of these disabilities is Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). People
diagnosed with ASD may be extremely sensitive to their physical environment, through lighting,
colors, textures, arrangement of furnishings, floor coverings, and window placements. ASD has a
large array of courses, creating unique design challenges. What appears to be good design for
one person is not necessarily good design for another. For example, some autistic people thrive
in natural light while others require room-darkening shades.
Two examples of challenges for the autistic are space size and sensitivity to noise. Many
are afraid of large open spaces, such as malls, while others may have a fear of small, intimate
spaces, forcing them to bump into other individuals (American Society of Interior Design). With
sensitivity to noise, those with autism are often sensitive to everyday sounds such as dogs
barking, cars blowing their horns, and sirens.
Another common challenge people face is depression and anxiety. Designing for
depression and anxiety focuses on creating “room to breathe.” One important step in establishing
“breathable” space is creating an atmosphere with minimal clutter. A simple, clean room with
5minimalist design allows the mind to relax and focus on one thing rather than bouncing around
Minimalist designs are simple, sleek, and utilize clean lines. They lack major ornamentation and
superfluous colors and textures (Silvis).
Another method to alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety is through color.
According to Health Design Magazine, bold colors like red can be disturbing for patients and
may induce anxiety. The late Antonio Torrice was an interior designer focused on therapeutic
designs for children and those with disabilities. He found a correlation between subconscious
healing and the colors of the Far East. Torrice looked to India and their belief of the chakra, the
seven psychic centers of the body, to find the healing powers of color. According to Hinduism,
each person has seven chakras and each chakra represents a different color. The chakra for
anxiety and depression lie in the fifth chakra- represented by the color blue (Silvis).
In general color theory, blue positively impacts overall health. Blue has been proven to
slow down the metabolism, creating a calming effect. The color has also been shown to decrease
both blood pressure and heart rate. Light blue, in particular, is often associated with health and
healing (Pomroy). Those with anxiety and depression can often create a piece of mind by being
surrounded by passive blue colors. Open and diffused natural light is also optimal for a calming
environment, as natural light has a greater concentration of blue.
Home & Heart Rescue will have rooms for those with disabilities, creating therapeutic
environment. These spaces will allow enriching opportunities to foster strong bonds between a
person and pet. A research study of healthcare environments was completed by Ron Smith,
President and CEO of Design at The Intersection, LLC, an architecture firm focusing on value-
based designs for healthcare organizations, and Nicholas Watkins, director of research and
innovation at HOK, a world-wide architecture, engineering, and urban planning firm. Smith and
6Watkins examined methods used in interior design and architecture to decrease the amount of
stress and anxiety to improve patient outcomes. Four key factors in reducing anxiety according
to healthcare architects, interior designers, and researchers are reducing or eliminating
environmental stressors; providing positive distractions; enabling emotional support; and giving
a sense of control. Therapeutic environments may also be created through the implementation of
controlled environmental factors. A few of these factors mentioned by Smith and Watkins are
noise reduction, access to daylight, and appropriate lighting. For example, heating, ventilation,
and air conditioning systems should be as quiet as possible, creating a peaceful environment.
Adequate spaces should be provided to avoid overcrowding, reducing or eliminating
environmental stressors. Other ways to implement this theory are visual and noise privacy,
acoustical separation and finished treatments within corridors. Also important in their theory, is
lighting that supports natural circadian rhythm and maintaining good indoor air quality.
Additionally, color has the ability to reduce environmental stressors. Smith and Watkins note
positive distractors may be achieved through things such as views of nature, access to gardens,
and pets. Social support can be achieved by creating spaces where one can engage socially with
others and by creating safety zones. Lastly, Smith and Watkins note a sense of control can be
given by things such as a choice of artwork, way finding, choice of lighting, and privacy (Smith
and Watkins).
Implementation into Design
Home & Heart Rescue is designed to have a healing atmosphere. Nature is known for its
healing powers and organic shapes. The shape of the shelter is elliptical, alluding to shapes found
in the natural world. The shape also creates a circulation pattern than leads visitors throughout
7the space. Each animal can be viewed from the flow of human traffic. Walls in the central area
are curved contribute to the natural, healing tone.
The main entry section at the south of the building features an oval shape as the back
moves into a more rectangular, utilitarian envelope. The oval space of the building was designed
to specifically create a circulation pattern, engaging visitors and potential adopters with the
animals as they travel through the space. The shape of the shelter creates a loop with a central
retail area.
The animals are located on the exterior walls of the shelter, allowing views to the
outside. Rooms containing dogs are located on the west side of the shelter while rooms
containing cats are located on the east. The exterior perimeter of this oval shape is
comprised of glass curtain walls, allowing both the dogs and cats to have windows leading
to the outside environment. This allows an environment that incorporates nature, which
has been scientifically proven to boost mood in animals. A gypsum board wall separates
each room with a twelve-inch wide floor to ceiling window. This narrow window,
separating the animal rooms, allows privacy for the animal while allowing animals in
different rooms to interact with one another without physical contact.
Dog rooms are located on the west side of the facility. Each room contains a rocking
chair for visitors, food and water dishes, a high quality pet bed, and a teepee-type enclosure
that allows them to have a sense of privacy. The dog rooms are designed for one to two
dogs.
Cat rooms are located across from the dog rooms on the east side of the shelter.
Each cat rooms houses five to ten pets. Each room contains litter boxes disguised as chests,
food and water dishes, cat teepees, and objects for climbing, resembling real life trees.
8The interior side walls between animal rooms alternate between four pastel colors:
blue, green, coral, and yellow. This creates visual interest and allows a way for visitors and
potential adopters to remember which room their favorite pets is located.
There are private rooms for animal interaction located on the north side of the
shelter. Both of these rooms are designed alike, allowing them to be versatile for a number
of disabilities. The rooms have the same hardwood flooring used throughout most of the
shelter. Flooring like cork and carpet are autism friendly due to their absorption qualities,
but would not be fit for an animal shelter. Flooring that absorbs sound often absorbs other
things like urine from pets. Ease of access for those utilizes wheelchairs, braces, or crutches
is an advantage of using hardwood flooring throughout. The walls enclosing the spaces are
soundproofed to create a peaceful, safe environment. The rooms have large, floor to ceiling
windows to provide natural daylight, fostering a healing environment. The windows also
allow for nature to be brought into the space. The rooms are adorned with simple, natural
fiber curtains. Those with anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder are often
in need of environments with an abundance of natural light while those with ASD can be
overly sensitive to bright spaces. The curtains allow a controlled amount of natural light.
The furniture pieces in the rooms are minimal and light teal blue in color. Teal is a
color that combines both green and blue, integrating nature, healing, serenity, and
peacefulness into the spaces. The walls of the rooms are a faint blue color resembling gray.
Paint throughout the facility is Benjamin Moore Natura, providing clean air quality and
increased sustainability in design. The rooms catering to disabilities have a minimalistic
design to reduce clutter. This clean, simple design creates an environment that is suitable
for those with ASD and anxiety and depression, among other disabilities. A lack of
9ornamentation in the rooms enables the animals to become the positive distractors. This
relationship allows stronger bonds to develop between the animals and potential adopters.
Upon entering the shelter there is a direct line of sight to the large reception desk with a
white solid surface countertop. The wall behind the counter is a clean, white shiplap wall that
displays a large logo for the shelter. This reception counter is also used as a checkout for the
retail area and as a check in for volunteering guests.
Attached to the shiplap wall behind the reception desk is the volunteer locker room.
Often, volunteers for animal shelters are stuck with small areas, if any, to keep their personal
items while they are working. Providing lockers for volunteers will create a safe space, giving
them incentive to continue volunteering at Home & Heart Rescue.
Opposite the volunteer lockers are the restrooms. The restrooms, one for men and one for
women, are ADA compliant, adding to the disability-friendly nature of the facility. Each
restroom has a five-foot turning radius and handrails behind and beside the toilet. The sinks are
mounted at thirty-two inches and provide a knee clearance of twenty-seven inches. The flooring
and walls of the restrooms are the same non-slip tile that gives a practical detail with a high-end
look.
The retail area is located at the main entrance, extending back to the reception desk. The
position encourages new owners to be excited about pet ownership and encourages retail
business from current owners. The retail area will offer items including food, dishes, litter, and
collars to beds, toys, treats, and grooming accessories. This provides a convenience for those
adopting a pet from the shelter, establishing another income for the facility. Offering retail in a
high-consumer area such as London will draw potential adopters into the shelter.
10On the west of the shelter, in front of the dog rooms, is a large atrium space with terrazzo
flooring and a whitewashed brick curved wall. The atrium contains benches and plants,
providing a relaxed environment for visitors and adopters to interact with the shelter pets.
To the east of this area is a utility room with extra storage for animal supplies, and for a
washer and drier for towels, blankets, etc. To the west of the reception are two more storage
rooms. Because these rooms are closer to the dog rooms, they will be utilized mostly for dog
supplies. Also on this side if the shelter are the shelter are a manager’s office, adoption office,
storage, and event space. The manager’s and adoption offices are adjacent and provide space for
files and other information on pets, employees, and visitors. These rooms have curved walls with
windows, allowing a line of sight into the area of the shelter. The event space is a large area with
tables and chairs on the same terrazzo flooring as the atrium. The area will not only provide an
area for Home & Heart Rescue to present their own events, but also to allow outside
organizations and people to utilize the shelter. This space creates an invitation for the community
to be a part of the shelter.
Behind the restrooms is a large empty training room with two entrances. The training
room provides an area for shelter cats and dogs to be trained as service animals. Training areas
can also be used to help those with disabilities become acquainted with their animals. The door
on the south of the training room is adjacent to one of the disability rooms while the door to the
north is next to the therapist’s office. Next to the therapists office is a grooming office. Well-
groomed animals have a better chance of adoption. On the west of the training room are both a
veterinarian office and a veterinarian exam room. The office is adjoined with the exam room and
separated by a pocket door for ease of access. The exam room will allow newly admitted animals
to receive important vaccinations as well as tests for things such as feline leukemia.
11Millions of animals are placed in animal shelters yearly while at the same time, millions
of people are diagnosed with some sort of disability. A high-end animal shelter is designed to
meet the needs of both animals and those with disabilities. Creating a shelter that contains a
training room for service animals and separate rooms for those with disabilities allows stronger
bonds to foster. Home & Heart Rescue creates safe spaces in a healing atmosphere. These areas
are low in distractions and noise volumes and high in accessibility. Visitors of the shelter will
find they are in need of the animals as much as the animals are in need of them, increasing
adoption rates.
