The Designer Eco-Friendly Office – O Pods

The O Pod is an eco-friendly garden office. The strikingly designed circular building has been created to be quickly and easily installed into a garden space. The O Pod provides you with a warm and secure working environment that is near to home, without the common downsides to an office within the home.

The  O Pod Garden Office has been designed by EcoHab Homes to be an uplifting and inspiring workspace that will not cost the earth. The eco-friendly office buildings’ have an aesthetically pleasing circular design, they are energy efficient, warm spaces that require far less heating than conventional outbuildings, and also boast spectacular amounts of natural light that floods the room from the circular windows and the roof dome. The pods use high-density Celotex to make them both energy and thermally efficient, while the double glazed windows and dome help to allow natural light and heat in without letting much out.

It is widely known that long commutes to work, or even daily short commutes, have a negative impact on the environment while costing you both your time and the fuel prices. Working from home is becoming increasingly popular with both employers and employees alike, but often many find the home environment too distracting. Too often little household chores end up requiring your attention, or the family disturbs you without meaning to. Some overcome this by making use of outbuildings or even garages, cold dark little boxes that at least shut them away from the hubbub of the daily home, but are hardly the inspiring office environment you want.

The O Pod Garden Office provides you with a beautiful working environment, the pods can be customized to your individual needs, with full electrics and lighting installed. The pod allows you to have a defined working space separate from your home, one that is easy to heat, with plenty of natural light and that has the benefits of easy installation. The pods are prefabricated, helping them to be constructed in a fraction of the time a house extension or conservatory would take.   Typically installation takes around 48 hours, it does not create the amounts of dust, noise, and disruption usually associated with construction work and the pod is ready for immediate us. Creation is equally speedy, it usually takes only 3 weeks to create the pod ready for delivery.  Though the O Pods make great office spaces they can be used for a wide range of things such as studios, alternative guest accommodation, music studios, games rooms, teenage dens or hobby rooms.

The combined benefits of heat retention, ease of heating, and the use of natural lighting help to ensure that the O Pod will not run up the large energy bills commonly experienced with powered outbuildings. They provide added value to your home if you decide to sell your property or alternatively can be taken with you. The O Pod Garden Office provides you with an eco-friendly workspace in your own garden allows you to concentrate on your work with peace of mind that the building is not creating high energy bills. Prices start from £8,395 for a 3 m diameter Garden O Pod.
