Refuge 2.0
Tour for visitors to help raise awareness while providing relaxing and fun activities.
Animal shelters are sometimes seen as sordid places with dubious reputations. Yet they play an amazing role in the struggle to improve animal welfare. They reveal abusive behavior: dumping unwanted animals or animal abuse.
Clémence Roux, in bachelor interior architecture worked with the Carquefou SPA Loire-Atlantique animal shelter, with a view to finding new services. Refuge 2.0 offers a tour for visitors to help raise awareness while providing relaxing and fun activities. Every aspect of their communication has been redesigned, from signposting to images. Fancy munching on a sweet treat in a cat bar? Or playing with the shelter’s cute dogs? Refuge 2.0 is the place to go!
