The Cosy Pod - Compact Curved Timber Cabin with Nordic Charm

Design Brief:
Design a small, curved timber pod that offers a warm, minimalist retreat space ideal for use as a garden office, hobby studio, or guest room. The pod should feel inviting and snug while maintaining practical functionality and aesthetic appeal. Key features include:
• Distinctive arched roof and side profile constructed with treated timber framing and horizontal cladding.
• Cosy interior clad in tongue-and-groove pine panelling, with warm LED strip lighting along the apex for ambient glow.
• Solid timber flooring and compact footprint designed for year-round use.
• Glazed front door with a charming traditional design, painted in a dark matte finish to contrast the natural wood.
• Single rear window for ventilation and natural light.
• Set on a raised timber deck for a clean, dry threshold and visual appeal.

This timber pod is intended to blend a Scandinavian-style interior with an iconic curved silhouette, perfect for small gardens or woodland plots.
