ootBox, whose name means being out of the box, was conceptualized six years ago by American entrepreneur Robbie Friedman, according to a recent report by New Atlas. You have to consider that—back in 2016—portable offices were few and far between, so Friedman, who was in need of a private working space that wasn’t too far away, invented his own with the help of his friend Allison Zofan, a business development specialist. The compact office space officially launched last year.

Workers seeking a little respite from their home office desks can rent an ootBox, which comes delivered in a truck. There’s no need to assemble the pod yourself, nor is a permit required. To set up the office, just plug it into a 20-amp power outlet.

The plywood shipping containers offer eight feet of space, enough to fit a work desk and a lounge chair. A large glass window allows a quick glimpse at the outside world. There’s also motion-activated lighting, carpeted flooring, electricity, and fully-equipped ventilation, heating, and air conditioning.

Leasing one of these pods starts from US$1,000 a month, though you’ll need to rent it for at least four months. A new ootBox can also be purchased for between US$20,000 and US$40,000.
