Hawkes Architecture
Goodwoof 2023 "The Dogs"
The centrepiece to this unique event is Barkitecture. A collection of creative and innovative dog, kennel, designs by leading architects and designers. Hawkes architecture are proud to have been part of this fun event for three consecutive years, with entries called, “One woman and her dog”, “The Dogs” and “Gudruff” drawing in the crowds and helping to raise money for charity when Bonhams auction the kennels on the last day of the show.

The Previous Year
Goodwoof 2022
Our involvement in the 2022 Barkitecture competition at Goodwood was a memorable experience. We thoroughly enjoyed watching visitors immerse themselves in the Barkitecture exhibition. Our Venture Vessel attracted a lot of attention, with children enthusiastically exploring and climbing all over it.
Goodwoof 2024
Barkitecture
Our 2024 entry into Goodwoof was named Gudruff. We loved the idea of a dog’s head sticking out of a tortoise’s shell. A playful reinterpretation of tortoise & the hare.

We loved the idea of something fast, like a greyhound, resting inside something heavy & immovable. The kennel, engineered & beautifully crafted from a single solid block of Bath stone by Cotswold Natural Stone Limited, weighs around 900kg
Once in its permanent location, the kennel will be constructed with a lime mortar and provide an elegant and functional sculpture in its destination landscape.
