The clients fell in love with the simple, modern design of the pod, featuring a single-pitch roof that adds a contemporary touch to their backyard. The dark Yakisugi (burnt thermowood) siding in a barcode effect not only looks striking but also offers durability and weather resistance.
Inside, the pod is finished with natural materials that create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The walls and ceiling are finished in birch plywood, providing a light, airy feel, while the cork flooring adds comfort and sound insulation. A discreet infrared panel heater is installed in the ceiling, ensuring the space remains cozy and usable throughout the year, regardless of the weather outside.
The landscaping around the pod has been thoughtfully designed to integrate the space into the backyard beautifully. A corten steel seat, which echoes design elements found in other areas of the backyard, creates a cohesive look. This connection between the pod and the backyard enhances the overall aesthetic and invites the clients to enjoy their outdoor space even more.
With this new backyard retreat, the clients have not only gained a dedicated area for their workouts but also a stylish addition to their home that complements their lifestyle.
