When your business begins to outgrow the spare room, renting a commercial space can feel like the natural next step. But before taking on a lease, regular rent and the daily commute, there may be another option much closer to home.
The Platypus 3.0 Pod can create a dedicated space in your own backyard, giving your business room to grow while keeping work separate from your home life.
Turn an ongoing expense into an investment in your own space
Commercial rent can quickly become one of the largest ongoing costs for a small business. While a backyard Pod requires an upfront investment, it may help reduce or avoid years of rent and commuting expenses, depending on your business, location and property.
If you are considering a commercial lease, calculate the total rent you could pay over the next three to five years, along with fit-out, commuting and other ongoing premises costs. Comparing that figure with the cost of a backyard Pod can help you decide which option may offer better long-term value for your business.
Instead of paying for a space you will eventually leave behind, you can create a dedicated workspace on your own property—one that can continue supporting your business as it grows.
More than potential savings
The financial benefits are only part of the picture. A separate backyard workspace can also give you:
- No regular commute to and from a commercial premises
- A dedicated environment for meeting clients
- Space to display products or create content
- Clearer separation between business and home life
- More room to grow without taking over the house
The Platypus 3.0 offers 18m² of flexible space, making it well suited to a range of small-business and creative uses, including:
- Boutique or product showroom
- Beauty or wellness room
- Private office or consulting space
- Creative studio or content space
A space that works around your business
Every business works differently. A standalone Pod gives you the freedom to create a space that supports your routine—whether that means a calm client-facing environment, room to photograph products, a professional office or simply somewhere you can close the door and focus.
The space can be personalised to suit your business, brand and working style, helping you create an environment that feels both functional and professional. As your needs change, the Pod also offers flexibility to be adapted for a different purpose in the future.
Located just steps from home, it can help reduce commuting time while giving you clearer separation between work and home life. At the end of the day, you can close the door on work without it taking over your living space.
