The Orb™ is a new generation of mobile structures created specifically to appeal across three distinct markets: commercial show units, holiday or vacation park homes and adaptable home offices.
Built to a standard far beyond that of comparable structures using marine technology, it is both incredibly durable, lightweight and transportable.
The Orb™ was born of Philip Simpson's desire to have an inspiring and affordable outdoor space for his own family to enjoy. His starting point, as a designer, was to reject the box-like structure and unnatural colours and contours of the classic caravan. He wanted something that would enhance the user's appreciation of the outdoors, from both inside and out. His initial sketches (on backs of envelopes and restaurant napkins), inspired more by gypsy caravans and yachts, won the support of his dream team of architects and designers, and the list of potential customers grew.
Together with architect David Miller, (who designed the award-winning Media Centre at Lords' Cricket Ground while at Future Systems) and a leading structural engineering practice, the idea is fast becoming a reality. One of the UK's top interior design consultancies, Real Studios, has created a range of inspiring interiors to highlight the lifestyle potential of these unique units.

The Orb Holiday Home:
The Orb has been designed to sleep 7 people comfortably, whether it's young couples who like to spend holidays or weekends with an assortment of friends, or couples with kids who like to holiday with or without extended family.
The Orb's monocoque construction is more durable and long lasting than any other traditionally built structure on the market. The Orb will come with a minimum 5-year structural warranty.
The materials and technology used in the Orb's construction are exactly the same as in marine construction. Boats are designed to be incredibly strong, lightweight and water resistant - so is the Orb! Being light weight it will be easy to move on site. This makes it ideal for coastal locations, where it will withstand extreme weather conditions much better than the traditional park home.
