Designed by [Innovation Imperative](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crocs-the-roy-elephant), the sheds come with existing configurations for uses as lounges, wet-rooms, [saunas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pavilion-sei) and kiosks, among other things. However, users can also configure the sheds to create their own custom space. Windows can be added or removed, cladding materials can be customized and furnishings can be easily altered. The Tetra Sheds are constructed with plywood; their exteriors can be covered in any material such as cork, rubber or copper or painted. They are 3.3 meters tall and take up 10 square meters of space, offering 8.5 square meters of internal space. They are equipped with programmable floor heating and LED lighting which can be controlled via a mobile app. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 30% | Activity: 75% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Modular Shed Configurations:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating a modular system that allows users to easily customize and configure sheds for various uses. - **Customizable Cladding Materials:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing a wide range of cladding material options that can be easily added or removed to personalize shed exteriors. - **Smart Shed Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrating advanced technologies like programmable floor heating and LED lighting controlled through a mobile app into shed designs. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Architecture and Construction:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating innovative modular shed designs that offer flexibility and customization options for clients. - **Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Exploring new possibilities for modular shed interiors, including furniture and layout designs, that cater to specific customer needs. - **Materials and Finishes:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing a diverse range of cladding materials and finishes for sheds, offering customers unique and customizable options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dual-Workspace Backyard Sheds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/workshed.md) - [Prefab Timber Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forest-nests-treepod-project.md) - [Shape‑shifting Retreats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-offgrid-house.md) - [Adaptive Backyard Studios](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/love-shack-1.md) - [Compact Sustainable Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-cabana.md) - [Earthy Tonal Tiled Sheds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-shed-1.md) - [Sleek Timber-Constructed Sheds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-nightlight.md) - [Futuristic Modular Cabins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pebl-grand-cabin.md) - [Experimental Shelter Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grayhus.md)
