ART BOX
An art object for your backyard. Adapt the skin to your home — and the inside to your life.
Not a shed. Not a kit. An art object that adapts.
One precise volume in your backyard — and two things you control. Wrap it in a finish that echoes your house, or one that stands apart. Then fit the inside to whatever your life needs this year.
Match your home. Or make a statement.
The same volume reads completely differently depending on its skin. Tap through six finishes — from warm rift oak to charred cedar to charcoal metal.
The finish is a cladding package on a constant structure — so it can be specified to match an existing home, or changed down the line.
One box. Many lives.
The same open volume becomes whatever you need — a calm studio, a real home office, a private gym, a game-day room, or a poolside lounge.
Each scenario is a fit-out package — millwork, fixtures, and tech sized to the use. Pick one to start; the volume can be re-fit later.
A complete one-bedroom in 650 sq ft.
An open living and dining room with a fireplace, a private bedroom, a full kitchen, and a walk-in bath — about 650 square feet inside a 25′9″ × 30′2″ footprint.

It settles into your backyard.
Every lot is different. The Art Box tucks into the rear yard behind your main house — deck and glazed corner opening to the garden. A few ways it can sit:
Complete, then made yours.
Every Art Box arrives as a finished shell with systems in. You choose one finish and one scenario fit-out — and add options from there.
