Hive Pods are modular, 3D-printed dwellings designed as secondary accommodation, or for remote and eco-sensitive locations.
Engineered for rapid deployment with minimal environmental impact, each pod features a lightweight geodesic structure made from recycled geopolymer concrete and composite materials.
The design is bushfire and cyclone resilient, relocatable, and assembled using basic tools—requiring only ute access and screw pile foundations.
