The KitaHaus Pod - Mobile Living and Working Space

You might remember a few days ago, we’ve presented the Mobile Classroom of the Future by Gollifer Langston Architects. Today here’s another similar project called Kitahaus Pod. It is designed as a stand-alone accommodation or temporary office and can also be interlinked to create unique temporary or permanent living and working environments. The KitaHaus legs are adjustable so it can be situated in almost any site including normally unusable sloped and wooded areas. The first built Kitahaus pods will be used at a school in Windermere. The Elleray Prep School would have 3 classrooms. The pod is built using timber and the passive ventilation allows for better air circulation. The pod also makes use of solar energy and is a sustainable living space. The cost of an external finished shell at this size, with two glazed ends and a balcony is 95,000 Pounds.  Images from gizmag.
