With a modern twist on the pod, shipping container, get a load of the Tetra Shed! Coming early 2012, tetra shed® is a new modular building system which, as a single module, has been designed to be a modern garden office.
a double module layout has also been designed to create a larger office for larger gardens.
clusters of upto 6 modules have primarily been designed as additional work, rest and play space for homes. larger tessellations can be used for a range of applications such as classrooms, exhibition space, corporate events, tourism & leisure facilities and retail space. designed to exceed the building regulations, tetra shed® is suitable for permanent year-round use.
tetra shed® is available externally finished in any ral colour (www.ralcolor.com) or clad in either copper, zinc, corten steel or marine plywood and internally lined in either birch faced plywood or plasterboard.

Innovation Imperative,
Tetra Shed is being primarily marketed as a “modern garden office space” but like other prefab ADUs (accessory dwelling units), its applications aren’t strictly limited to a backyard workspace: it can be used as guest quarters, yoga or art studio, kid’s play area, or whatever you want it to be. And given the somewhat sinister-looking appearance the futuristic, tent-like unit takes on when completely folded up and painted black, the unit.
In a non-residential applications like pop-up retail spaces, tourism facilities, exhibition spaces, and classrooms, a single modular unit can be expanded by adding up to six additional modules to create little Tetra clusters. The exterior of the timber-framed Tetra Shed can be custom painted or finished with copper, zinc, corten steel, or marine plywood while the inside of the structure can be lined with either plasterboard or birch-faced plywood. LED lighting strips are also available.
