AUTONOMOUS HUMAN RECHARGING SANCTUARIES

AUTONOMOUS HUMAN RECHARGING SANCTUARIES


Breathtaking

A tranquil getaway in some of the most stunning locations on our planet where you can relax by listening to the song of mother nature. Districthive's Colony is a five star space for humans to recharge and connect with breathtaking nature in luxury without giving up comforts and technology.

The Colony

The "Colony", a tiny house Pod hotel we call podtel is the world's first truly autonomous living space that can colonise any terrain. It requires no public services to function by making its own water, electricity and waste treatment. We can park in spaces where construction is not possible.

A.I. Powered

It is completely self-sustaining, self-sufficient, fully equipped and mobile phone APP controlled: from entry, lighting, temperature, aroma, sound, TV and concierge to Artificial Intelligence powered energy management. Everything is connected.

Self-sustaining

Climate change is a real threat so we went completely offgrid and green. Our proprietary technology makes our own water, electricity and waste treatment without plugging into local services. The colony is carbon neutral and can operate for 4 days without sun on solar charged batteries.

COLONISING UNINHABITABLE SPACES AUTONOMOUSLY

THE COLONY PODTEL by DISTRICTHIVE

Our first prototype, set amidst the stunning backdrop of the Sierra Nevada ranges in Granada.
This is a demonstration of the technological advances from intensive R&D conducted by Districthive to create a truly offfgrid habitable space, without compromise.

SELF-SUSTAINING, COMPLETELY OFFGRID

Perched in a desert, South of Spain, we wanted to demonstrate that we solved the problem of generating our own water, electricity and waste treatment without any public services or grids. We are completely self-sustaining and we make no changes to the natural environment prior to dropping the pod on the ground.
We make enough energy to run 4 days without the sun, 250 litres of water a day from the air and convert all waste into ash and irrigation water to be safely discarded into the environment.

LUXURY WITHOUT COMPROMISE


Districthive podtels were designed to be state-of-the-art without compromise in quality of living. The goal was simple, we wanted to colonise new environments without disrupting eco-systems, whilst ensuring guests had complete luxury and services they were accustomed to.

SPACE & DESIGN


The podtels are built to mimic our idea of a space ship that landed on planet Mars, the next frontier for humans. How do we do that in limited space and without compromise? The podtels are highly organised with plenty of storage spaces and organised modules that solve every need humans have in their daily lives.

APP POWERED TECH


Districthive podtels only work with our custom built APP available on app stores. Open doors, control your mood settings with light, sound, aromas and temperature.
There is high speed mobile internet with load balancers and fail over contingency connections, guaranteeing you access in the wild at all times!

AI POWERED


We built our own motherboard called the "HIVEMIND" that connect the hardware to the software. Our algorithms control everything about your stay by monitoring your energy and resources consumption, comfort and make your stay completely autonomous.
