A collection of even smaller  off -grid bespoke Echo  buildings , the first tiny Stargazer was commissioned by Ardgour Estates as a space where visitors could have a night cap, watch the woodland wildlife and gaze at the stars. It went on to win Channel 4's Shed of the Year 2017.

​

With solar LEDs  and timber lined interiors, the 2.9m diameter structures  sit off the ground on 'milk stool' legs anchored onto small concrete pads for minimal disturbance to the site.

​

Northumbrian Water’s site on the banks of Keilder Water is home to  a second Stargazer that sits the edge of the pine forest with a beautiful view across the water and the Northumbrian landscape.

 

The drawings show  a version of the Stargazer, designed for a writer and has a spiral plan, creating a small space with an elevated view.
