These pods are collapsible with lots of built-in gadgets and come in very bright coloursThe Caravan Pods fit in standard car parking spaces when folded and are light enough to be towed by the smallest of cars, but expand to reveal a spacious and attractive holiday home.

Inside is broken into two pods: one seats or sleeps two adults, while the other houses the water system, power supply and storage space.
And the large central window is made of  film, which changes from transparent to opaque at the flick of a switch.

The designer of these innovative holiday homes is David Tonkinson, a 23-year-old industrial design graduate, from Poole, Dorset. He said: “Caravans and caravanning are regarded among younger generations as a dated and old-fashioned pastime.
“I believe caravans are in desperate need of modernisation if they are to overcome the stigma surrounding them and are to appeal to more than just retired people.
“I wanted to create a novel, two person caravan that appeals to a fashion conscious user. It also had to be small and lightweight enough to be towed by a small car.

The exterior coloured body panels, interior panels, walls and floor are contact moulded glass-reinforced-plastic.
The window is polycarbonate with a polished aluminium frame and neoprene seal. And the chassis is cast steel, nickel-plated to protect it from corrosion
