Home Pod – Shower Room

Neil spent some time finalising the shower room. The room has been built on as a lean-to but never finished, so insulation and then waterproof gyproc were used to finish the inside. All the joints and screw heads were filled and finished. We then decided to sheet the three shower walls with a plastic product. Originally it was supposed to be a sort of outside shower so we maintained that idea a little by using a wooden base surrounded by stones. We will see over a few months how the wood stands up to the water from the shower.

Home Pod – Kitchen

Once the walls were all clean and painted we started making the Kitchen part of the build. We made the kitchen fit the space we had and incorporated an old Belgian style of “Belfast Sink”.

The Belgian sink sets it off quite nicely

Office Pod

Thinking about a Pod for use as an office or studio, it gets you out of the house and into a building which has a shape to help you concentrate on your work. The Arkipod is a perfect building for work, easy to heat and light.

Arkipod Mini almost finished

Well after some intensive work the family has almost finished the Arkipod Mini. The frame was sheeted and insulated. A vapour barrier was then applied and finished with corrugated metal sheeting. We really like this finish, should last a very long time.

Another great thing about the construction techniques we are using is that once the covering is worn out it can be removed and replaced easily.

All that is needed now is to finish the end caps for the roof, install the door and windows and put the finishing layer over the gable ends. This Arkipod Mini should retail at under 5000€ which makes it a great proposition for people looking for some extra space, or even to use for an income using the Air BnB website, if you have a cool place to put it, it will rent.

This Arkipod has an interior which is 8 foot wide and 10 foot long, from a camping point of view easily big enough for four people sharing, or alternatively with some nice furniture a cosy romantic couples Arkipod.

Arkipod Size

Arkipod’s come in many sizes, if the Arkipod is to be delivered it should be between 8 and 10 foot wide and between 12 and 15 foot long. Simply for convenient delivery by truck ten foot is a maximum width, otherwise special permits are required for transport, which even though possible would create inhibitive costs.

Arkipods come in many sizes, delivered by truck or built on site

Arkipod’s can also be built on site which enables a wider build. 12 foot wide is a nice width, lengths of between 16 and 20 foot, easily possible.

If you need a special size just get in touch with us and we will work something out.
