It's fair to say that if half as many people commuted to and from work each day, we'd halve the emissions that rush hour transport causes each day. Which is a lovely idea, if it weren't for the fact that working from home is not everybody's cup of tea. My main problem with working from home is that I live in a house and not an office, and have never really got on with this whole 'laptopping in your jim-jams' idea. Getting into work mode for many people involves scrubbing up nice and stepping into a professional environment, and my pad just isn't going to become that overnight.
If I had one of these bad-boys in the garden, however, I'd be inclinde to see it rather differently! The Office POD brings a whole new meaning to the idea of remote working as it comprises a rather sleek workspace in an all inclusive capsule. It's not actually available to buy- these pods are designed to be rented by employers as a cheaper alternative to office space.
The pod measures in at 2.1m x 2.1m and can be customised due to the user's requirements. It comes with a central locking system and can be constructed in under a day by trained professionals- and requires no planning permission.
It comes fully equipped with all the necessary power cables- just hook it up to you house mains and you're ready to go. It's designed to be eco-friendly as well as it's constructed from recycled materials and is meant to reduce carbon emissions per employee by up to 67% per year.
