This weekend Moderncat will be sponsoring one of the fabulous door prizes at the Modern Phoenix Expo and Home Tour. We will be giving away a retro-mod cat bed from Like Kittysville! Perfect for any mid-century moderncat.

If you live in the Phoenix area and are into mid-century modern design, this is the must-attend event of the year! For four years now, modernphoenix.net has organized a terrific weekend of events centered around mid-century modern design and architecture in the Phoenix area. Activities include a free public expo with vendors specializing in products and services related to modernism and modern contemporary design. There will also be speakers throughout the day on Saturday and a drawing for the door prizes that afternoon. Saturday events take place at the Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts and the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art.

Sunday is the big home tour of Village Grove, designed by Charles Schreiber for Allied Homes, built between 1962 and 1967. Last year the tour was of the Marlen Grove neighborhood.

So if you’re in the area, don’t miss this awesome weekend. And many thanks to Jayne at Like Kittysville for contributing the bed for the giveaway!

These are some of the one-of-a-kind, handcrafted retro mod cat beds available through eBay seller Like Kittysville. Each bed is made from vintage fabric, so there are no two alike. The bed is molded out of industrial steel mesh that is padded and upholstered and attaches to a sleek wood base. The boomerang shape is perfect for all you mid-century moderncats.

The creator of Like Kittysville graduated from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles and apparently has a houseful of rescued cats. How great is that?

This is one of the best uses of vintage fabric I’ve seen! I can’t decide which one to get!! New beds are listed every few days. Check out the current selections here.
