Lifepod: An Organic Escape from the Clutches of Modern Life

Lifepod

This might look like a very simple structure that looks classy and sophisticated but behind these pods lays the story of hard work, creativity and the best technology the world has to offer today. Any escape from the vexing chores of modern life is welcome and the ‘Lifepods’ are almost akin to the secluded cells in the Matrix tuned in to tap in to human power and convert it in to electricity. But unlike those pods, the Lifepod helps you recharge and find yourself once again by taking you in to the heart of nature in a clean, silent and harmonious fashion.

Originally conceived in 1997, Lifepods are constructed using the most advanced 21st century automotive, aeronautic, and nautical and RV technologies. Inspired by roaming mammals, the futuristic prefabs are designed as ‘quadrupedal fuselages’ with footings that can adjust to the contours of their environs, rather than disfiguring the landscape to fit to the house. The Lifepod becomes apart of its surroundings without sticking out and causing havoc like an alien object. It is not about altering the planet to your needs but molding your needs and integrating them with the rhythm of Mother Earth.

All the modular pieces fit into a 40 ft container and can be shipped anywhere around the world. Using state-of-the-art technology, you and your Lifepod can roam the world un-tethered and off-the-grid. You could use it in any fashion and against any background with the simplest of changes to the ultra-ergonomic design. In every sense of the word Lifepod turns out to be Life-Altering-Pod!
