The designer of the ‘U-Woof-O,’ LEGO Certified Professional and Chief Fairy, Kev Gascoigne, will also lead free workshops for adults and children over the weekend.
Curated by Kevin McCloud MBE, Barkitecture challenges designers, artists, and architects to push the boundaries of creativity. This year’s theme invites entrants to imagine how a dog might travel the cosmos, or wherever they might call home among the stars.
Globally renowned for inspiring imagination and play, the LEGO Group’s stellar submission, the ‘U-Woof-O’ created by Fairy Bricks, will be on display at Goodwoof across the weekend before going under the hammer on Sunday 17 May. All Barkitecture kennels are auctioned by Bonhams, with proceeds supporting Goodwoof’s charity partner, Battersea Dogs & Cats Home.
Kev Gascoigne, Chief Fairy at Fairy Bricks, said of the special creation: “In imagining the ‘U-Woof-O,’ we saw our canine companion, not as a passenger, but as an explorer, ne destined to travel between worlds. That vision naturally led us to design a landing craft. From there, the shape revealed itself: a form created for creature comfort, rather than human convention.
“Picture our intrepid hound touching down on low-gravity planets to play epic games catch, roaming endless plains where fetch and walkies never end, or splashing down on ocean worlds where every day means a joyful doggy paddle. A truly cosmic adventure for the ultimate space dog.”

This is the perfect opportunity for design fans to own a truly exclusive piece of brick-built artistry.
LEGO Certified Professional and Chief Fairy Kev Gascoigne and the Fairy Bricks team will also be hosting pre-bookable mini build workshops where attendees will be able to build their very own mini version of the covetable ‘U-Woof-O’ kennel. Running across both days, the children’s workshops are aimed at children aged 6-12 and the adult workshops for those over 14. Places will be strictly limited, with bookings opening on the Goodwoof website soon.
