We deeply understand the significance of historical context.
Our Tydubh collection of garden pods takes its name from early dwellings found in ancient Ireland and northern Scotland. In Scots Gaelic, these ancient houses are referred to as Taigh-Dubh, which translates to 'Blackhouse.'
Blackhouses were unique in that they did not have chimneys; instead, smoke from a central hearth was allowed to filter freely through the thatched roof. This resulted in soot staining the walls both inside and out, giving the houses their distinctive black appearance.
A Blackhouse was built to endure extreme weather conditions, featuring sturdy walls and a robust roof construction.
​
Our aim is to channel the spirit of this ancient resilience and bond it with modern materials, concepts and techniques. Creating modular buildings that withstand all weather extremes.

Our pods are designed to have minimal impact on the site in which they are installed, and are built with various rules and regulations in mind.

While some installs do not require planning applications to be submitted for approval, where these are required, Podworks can provide this service ensuring that your pod is fully approved and certified within any planning requirements set out by local councils.
