At long last, cat and dog art gets a refresh.

How we make our warmth, empathy and humor more clever, engaging and stylish.  

At Cat and Dog Modern, we've left behind typical representational and traditional graphics for the more engaging behavioral and situational concepts.  Is there a cat or dog insight that can take an idea to the next level? We don't stop until we find it! For example:

We've wondered what a gray poodle looks like in the fog. And what a white one looks like in the snow. We've challenged the logic of random polka dots on Dalmatians - in four different ways!  We've reimagined sleeping cats in a sink and sitting cats on a stereo amplifier. We even took a Sunnyside Pup and turned it into a Moonyside one. Say what?

We didn’t stop innovating at better content, we innovated better clinic sizing, too!  

Beyond good messaging options, we've designed good sizing options - the kind that fit the most challenging obstacle course walls! Our prints come 9” x 12” or 16” x 20, often in subject matter groupings that encourage pairings, triplets or quads that can array  vertically or horizontally or cluster together.

Finally, we’ve created a whole series of lightweight, wood wall sculptures to mix and match with our prints -  each just a quarter inch thick and faced with White Maple or Walnut veneer so they hug the walls . Buying our art in groupings also means discounts applied to the group purchase - the more groupings you buy, the more you save.  

If you’re worried about framing costs, don’t.  We offer three colors of cleanly designed, brushed metal, glass-enclosed frames at very reasonable prices.  And while we’re on the subject of reasonable pricing...

Innovative art, innovative sizing, and now an innovative BY THE WALL purchasing option instead of the old, piece-by-piece way, free estimate included!   

Thanks to recent digital software innovations, you just send a picture of any clinic wall or walls to our HQ, tell us a few of your Cat and Dog Modern faves you'd like on that wall or walls (you can also include some designs you’d rather not have), and we’ll send you a picture of that wall back transformed - at no cost, along with a free estimate…how refreshing! 

This removes a lot of the hassle getting buy-in from different constituencies because they can ALL chime in at the start of the process before final choices are confirmed.

 A quick word about the Cat and Dog Modern design team.

Founder, artist and creative director Perrin Lam has spent a lifetime as a pet parent first and secondly, finding many ways to feed them through various creative jobs, careers and lifetimes. Rising to co-head the SF branch of one of America’s largest ad agencies gave him the skillset to understand the importance of targeting a message.

Of course, none of this happens in a vacuum. Cat and Dog Modern works with one of the city’s best imprint houses to make sure all art is indelibly reproduced on heavyweight canvas-like paper.  All woodwork is cut by a close associate following Perrin’s specs.  Neither artwork nor woodwork comes to Perrin's final inspection approval until it’s passed THEIR sets of eyes. Finally, none of the above could happen without the tireless help of my studio staff. I cannot thank them enough.
