As a background, I ultimately want to litter train my bun to be a house bunny. Whenever I am home, it will be roaming around the house where I am and I will only put him/her back into the housing when its time for bed. I am home for most of the day so I guess it will be somewhat of a free roam bun.

Even though it is a hutch, I'd like to put it indoors. Since it might be a bit small as its 92cm in length compared to the 120cm recommended which I saw somewhere, I want to set up a fence (same as a play pen) in front of hutch to act like a front yard. The hutch door will be left open so the bunny can hop in and out of the hutch and have space to jump without given free reign of the whole room.
For the buns bedding in the that smaller compartment, I was thinking of getting an rabbit cushion/bed or towel/rugs instead of hay,straw and bedding material such as carefresh. The reason is that I do not want the bun to get confused with bedding and the litter box as they have common items. Basically there will be no flooring. Maybe I might cut out a piece of carpet to make it the same shape as the hutch floor.
I am thinking of putting the litter box (comprising of litter and hay) in the larger compartment of the hutch.
The front yard will consist of toys, water and food.
Hope my idea makes sense and any feedback/advice would be great.
