The Coop

The Coop is a portable shelter prototype that can be placed anywhere within nature, allowing users to enjoy the environment within the simple refuge.
The footprint of The Coop was based on two dimensions- a double bed mattress internally, and a standard trailer size externally.
A giant custom pivot connection allows the roof to open during the day with the help of gas struts.
The low windows provide a surprise view to wherever The Coop is parked whilst in sleeping mode
Oriented strand board lines the interior. The material is cheap, lightweight, textured, and carries a warm glow.
Simple storage means only small necessary items come along for the ride.
