The concept is designed to help people live and work on the go in a comfortable way, as it features a [retractable workspace](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/castillo-mobile-office), a dedicated desk area and sliding doors that can be opened to the fresh air. The live-work lifestyle that the Office Pod has the potential to support is a balanced one, as the automaker's concept also includes a roof that doubles as a balcony for lounging, complete with its own recliner and parasol.
