The conceptual 'Dwelling Pod' has been designed in partnership between the Imminent Studio and Grafito Design Studio as an ultra-modern cabin that would nestle itself right into any secluded environment. The cabin is constructed using a blend of metal, concrete and glass materials, and features an open-concept interior space that allow the various rooms inside to flow into one another without any walls or impediments. The floor-to-ceiling windows across the front and rear of the cabin offer immersive exterior views, while also maximizing the amount of light that comes in.
The conceptual 'Dwelling Pod' features timber accents on the roof and rear walls, which would help it to seamlessly disappear into the surrounding forest landscape for optimal seclusion from the outside world.
