Barkitecture 2023
Barkitecture returns for 2024, with a brand new theme ‘Lounge Access: For the Jet-Setting Dog’.
Architects are being challenged to design a kennel that creates a sense of calm and tranquillity for dogs accompanying us on our travels. Now more than ever - whether short or long haul - our jet-setting pets are becoming frequent travellers on planes, trains, bikes and automobiles.
A collection of architects return to showcase their amazing and inspirational creations at Goodwoof.
A unique competition with Mastercard
Architects are competing for the ‘Single Kennel Design Award’ for a single or double occupancy dog kennel, open to registered architecture or design practices, especially those with dogs.
Practices are then expected to design, construct or procure their kennel for a maximum construction budget of £250 and deliver the finished kennel to Goodwood for the event. All kennels will then be auctioned at The Bonhams Barkitecture Auction for our charity, Jai Dog Rescue.

To this day, dogs can stay at the Hotel, accompany their owners in the restaurants, and even join our Members’ clubhouse, The Kennels. We thought that it was only fitting to dedicate an entire event to them, just as we do with cars and horses at our other flagship meetings.
