Business Pods for Modern Commercial Spaces

Modern working environments are evolving and so are the spaces people use to connect, collaborate and recharge.

Ornate Garden Pods offer a distinctive addition to contemporary business parks, hospitality venues and commercial environments, creating flexible all-year spaces that combine comfort, privacy and design-led appeal.

Ideal for:
▪️ Informal meeting rooms
▪️ Creative collaboration spaces
▪️ Breakout and wellbeing areas
▪️ Private client discussions
▪️ Team presentations and brainstorming
▪️ Executive chill-out zones
▪️ Outdoor office environments
▪️ Staff social and hospitality spaces

Designed for year-round use, the pod provides a comfortable and inspiring environment away from the distractions of the traditional office — encouraging creativity, conversation and wellbeing in a unique architectural setting.

Pod interiors can also be tailored in bespoke corporate colours and finishes, helping businesses create a striking and memorable extension of their brand identity. Beyond functionality, Ornate Garden Pods naturally become conversation-building features within commercial environments — eye-catching architectural spaces that leave a lasting impression on staff, visitors and clients alike.

Previously positioned within communal business park areas, rooftop environments, hospitality terraces and integrated outdoor spaces within commercial buildings, the versatility of the pod allows it to adapt beautifully across a wide variety of professional settings.

From focused team meetings to relaxed breakout sessions, Ornate Garden Pods bring a new dimension to modern workplace design.

From Garden Living to Creative Workspaces

The Evolution of the Ornate Garden Pod

A Message from the Designer

Wayne Farmer reflects on how the original vision for the Ornate Garden Pod evolved from luxury garden living into creative commercial environments.

"Originally conceived as a way to enhance outdoor living for families and homeowners, the Ornate Garden Pod has evolved far beyond its original purpose. What began as a design-led response to modern garden living has increasingly found a place within contemporary business environments, hospitality settings, rooftop terraces and creative commercial spaces.

As businesses continue to prioritise wellbeing, collaboration and flexible working environments, the demand for thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces has grown significantly. The pod’s distinctive architectural form, calming atmosphere and adaptable interior have made it a natural fit for meeting spaces, breakout areas, creative studios and private retreats away from the traditional office environment.

In this feature, Ornate Garden designer Wayne Farmer reflects on the original inspiration behind the concept, how the design has evolved over time, and why businesses are increasingly embracing outdoor architectural spaces that encourage creativity, conversation and wellbeing throughout the working day"
