Pod Initial scribbling of a mad man

Following a family camping trip and a summer of festival going Jason Thorpe of M2C Innovation started to scribble some ideas of a new tenting concept. The reason was that when camping with friends and small children Jason and his wife had to decide when it was bed time for the kids who would go back to the tent with them and who could stay and socialise with their group of friends.Each of the families also had to make the same choice so Jason got to thinking “what if” you had a group of tents that were interconnect and you could socialise as a group of people in 1 tent knowing that your children were also secure in a tent that was only a tunnel distance away. He was also fed up of huddling under a Gazebo to keep dry and warm at a festival when back at the camp sites in the evenings , again he had his” what if” moment.

On his return he started to scribble down these drawings and the initial POD concept was born … We then sent these scribbles to CAD drawing friend and it all started to become real.

Initial Pod concept from 2011
