Pup-air is a hybrid home appliance designed for healthy coexistence between humans and companion animals. As pets become integral members of the household, invisible hygiene issues—such as airborne allergens and bacteria embedded in pet-worn items—affect shared living environments. pup-air combines a dog apparel styler with an air purification system to address these challenges. It sterilizes pet clothing and accessories while purifying indoor air, helping reduce odor, allergens, and bacteria. Through visible processes and intuitive feedback, pup-air reframes pet care as a shared, preventive health practice in everyday living.
