The Vûrv Design line comes from Glenn Ross of Coquitlam, British Columbia. With a BA in archaeology and Masters degree in architecture from the University of British Columbia in 2001, he brings much talent and purpose to his work. Glenn’s intention is to create warm, comfortable spaces within the context of the modern home. He strives toward the minimal, while maintaining a connection with the handmade. About the same time he started his company, Oliver, a German Shepherd and Blue Heeler mix, came into Ross's life. Glenn felt his handsome guy deserved the best, not wanting to sacrifice style when adding dog accoutrements to his home.

The transition away from plastic laminate is here. All products in the line feature wood construction, handmade from start to finish. Glenn's products also utilize formaldehyde free adhesives and non-lacquer finishes. He meticulously separates his wood waste from recyclable waste and trash, and reuses as much material as possible. Next to creating desirable products, the environment is his primary concern. Glenn's work has been noticed by many in the contemporary design and architectural communities. In fact, his Series Three Deluxe Feeder was chosen as Cat Fancy Magazine's 2009 Editor's Choice Award winner.

More of a recliner than a pet bed, the Pod Bed is like an Eames chair for your best friend. The Pod Bed is made of bent ply with a choice of five fabulous veneers.

Solid wood legs at the base of this unit provide a sturdy foundation, while a removable and machine washable pad on the interior of this lounger will have your tired dog or kitty dreaming in luxury. 

This unique piece of furniture was was inspired by a local design contest. The "Doghouse Vancouver" portion of the 2006 Design Vancouver Interior Design & Urban Living Expo called upon designers to bring their talents to the world of canine design. The expo organizers asked for reinterpretations on the classic doghouse, and that is surely what this piece does.

According to Glenn Ross, the Dog Pod provides small dogs and cats with a sense of shelter. When he was satisfied with the bed's shape, a washable and removable synthetic fur liner was added to make the pod cozy.

The images on the left show the pillow with its cover.

The Pod is suitable for small dogs and cats.

The overall dimensions are: 17 inches deep x 20 inches wide x 19 inches high.

Glenn attests to the bed's enticing design, as his young daughter often crawled into the prototype trying to find a snug spot to rest.

Bamboo, Maple, Cherry, Douglas Fir, or Black Walnut are applied to a plywood mold, resulting in a lovely hand finished product.
