Perrinepod, a House that can be Erected in Three Days by Jean-mic Perrine

Since Perrine first talked about the Perrinepod, the Perth architect has been inundated with inquiries from all over the world. As a result, the release of the first pods was delayed to make sure they would comply with various international codes. The pod comes with a Solar Edwards Heat Pump hot water system that uses refrigeration technology in reverse to heat the water. A small electric booster motor can be powered by a solar cell for the complete environmental package.

The pre-cast concrete sections of the pod are manufactured in the shipbuilding precinct of Henderson by French engineer Serge Picoult’s company Accue which usually builds concrete sections for wharves and other big industrial projects.

    Hello:

    Your Perrinepod house interests me very much. Is it available in the USA? I’m in Los Angeles, California and think it would do very well out here. Do you have any representatives I could contact in California or the USA?

    Thank you,
