Power couple
The pair teamed up to design and execute a state-of- the-art, four-season inflatable tent that’s both robust and choc full of technical innovation. (image credit: Benjamin Hardman)
Into the wild
Dubbed The Cave Tent, this new pump-up sleeping quarters was developed to handle all seasons in Iceland’s most unforgiving wilderness. (image credit: Benjamin Hardman)
Strong by design
Strength is key, so the team penned a geodesic dome construction with ten crossing points and high quality weatherproof materials. (image credit: Benjamin Hardman)
Bright spark
The bright orange colour is inspired by safety shelters in the Icelandic highlands and designed to stand out against Iceland's terrain. (image credit: Benjamin Hardman)
Room inside
It can be pitched in under a minute and will then comfortably sleep three to four people and house their kit. (image credit: Benjamin Hardman)
