This Tiny 183 Square Foot Cabin That Is Aimed At Stressed-Out City Dwellers Can Be Assembled Anywhere In The World

We are pretty sure that most of us enjoy a relaxing getaway in nature, be it camping, renting a cabin in the middle of the woods or just spending a day by the lake. Well, it seems that getting closer to nature just became even easier – and more comfortable – thanks to these prefab, round cabins with sliding glass walls that can be assembled pretty much anywhere in the world!

The said cabins are called LumiPods, and are just 183 square feet. The assembled cabin contains a simple bedroom and a bathroom.

They have a charred wood cladding and glass facade that slides open to provide a seamless connection between the interior and outdoor spaces and have been created for stressed-out city dwellers who might be looking for a weekend getaway.

Would you be willing to try this for yourselves, Pandas? Let us know in the comments!

LumiPods must be connected to electricity, water and waste water networks. But the company is currently exploring new technology in order to offer a totally off-grid version later in the future

Fascinated by music, movies and sitcoms, I'm passionate about social media and can't live without the internet, especially for all the cute dog and cat pictures out there. I wish the day had about 40 hours to be able to do everything I want.

Hey there, Pandas! My name is Diana (though some prefer to refer to me as Diane, Deanna, and even Liana sometimes), and I am a Community Post Moderator Lead for Bored Panda. As my position title states, I am one of the people (employed Pandas for bamboo) over here who work with the community side of things on this website to ensure all is well, and while at that, I also help various creators and artists get recognition for the incredible work they do by connecting them to a large worldwide audience. Other than that, outside of work, you can find me brewing a nice cup of coffee, making a pizza from scratch, or baking brownies. I also love traveling, concerts, and cats (heavy on that, because I am a cat mom).

So, the pods must stay in a fixed position to enable electricity, water and sewerage connections. This all has to be paid for which wouldn't be cheap with permits etc as well as connections. The said, "stressed-out city dwellers who might be looking for a weekend getaway" will also need to own their own bushland block to justify the expense. Not very practical on someone else's land even if they gave permission. Not really such a great idea, might as well build a regular holiday shack that includes a kitchen. Better wait for the off-grid version.

Yeah none of this makes sense. "I want a tent, except expensive and impractical. Also, I own a very small plot of land in the middle of a national park, and I like my vacations to always be there."

I guess a grill or firepit and picnic table you set up outside. Which is fine, at least in mild weather.
