There’s never been a better time to invest in a garden room from Green Retreats. They’ve just introduced a fresh design element that adds a hint of Scandi flair. To celebrate the Bank Holiday, they’ve unveiled a special promotion. Plus, their newly-released Basebox design comes with attractive 0% finance options.
Garden office and entertaining space
Currently, a trend in garden office design is the addition of a covered area next to the insulated workspace, serving as a spot for relaxation and entertainment. As shown by this My Eco Space project, these two functionalities can be combined seamlessly into one cohesive building.
Embracing ‘quiet luxury’: elevating your home and garden with understated elegance
As a response to the non-stop nature of modern life, the trend of ‘quiet luxury’ has been steadily gaining popularity in interior design. Quiet luxury embraces the concept of understated elegance, refined simplicity, and a focus on quality materials and craftsmanship.
If you’re looking to create your own serene and sophisticated sanctuary in your home and garden, Karen Bell, Creative Director at David Salisbury, shares some practical tips to embrace the quiet luxury trend.
Compact garden gym
This 3m x 2.5m project by Garden Spaces proves that you don’t need a big garden to build a garden gym. The well-specified building features a mix of glazing to ensure a naturally light space and low-maintenance exterior finishes offering long-term durability and aesthetic appeal.
Downsize to a bespoke garden annexe
Swift Unlimited’s clients were looking to downsize. They partnered with Swift Unlimited to craft a custom one-bedroom home in their daughter’s garden. The layout and amenities of the annexe were tailored to the clients’ needs, with the Swift team overseeing the entire project—from the initial design to the delivery of keys for the move-in-ready home.
Work, Rest & Play Garden Rooms
Executive Garden Rooms’ clients in Poole, Dorset, presented them with a unique brief: to create two garden room buildings situated about 25m apart in a woodland setting. The larger of the two buildings was to be divided into two rooms, each with its own external access. These buildings were to serve as a home office, gym, and a quiet space for reading and relaxing.
Garden office, gym, and covered seating area under one roof
This 8.5m x 4.3m garden room in Banstead, Surrey, illustrates perfectly how these versatile buildings can accommodate multiple uses under one roof. Garden Fortress designed and built the space, dividing it into a home office, gym, and sheltered outdoor seating area.
The chosen site at the end of the client’s garden featured a significant fall in ground level. Garden Fortress installed a ground screw base and incorporated steps into the decking, making a feature out of the slope.
Light & airy garden annexe for the whole family
This 30 sqm garden annexe by Ark Design Build is designed for the whole family to enjoy. The pitched roofline creates a wonderfully light and airy interior. The annexe features a well-equipped kitchen and a shower room, which is customised according to the customer’s choice of tiles and fittings.
From conception to completion
Crusoe Garden Rooms Limited recently turned a client’s vision of a lakeside retreat into reality. Despite challenging conditions, Crusoe’s in-house team took care of the whole project, from the initial design to the completed room, including the final electrical connection.
Unlike many competitors who outsource installation, Crusoe Garden Rooms send their own team to sites across the UK, meaning you work with just one company throughout the project, allowing you to relax while your garden room comes to life.
Bespoke garden gym slots into a challenging plot
Faced with the challenge of an unconventional space around an existing garden office and three boundary walls, Garden Spaces crafted a bespoke L-shaped garden gym for their clients.
The specifications of the garden gym were carefully tailored to the equipment planned by the client. The foundation system incorporated a strategically positioned concrete slab to accommodate the weight equipment, and reinforcement panels were installed to secure wall-mounted equipment. Additionally, the gym was equipped with specialist rubber flooring to enhance safety and durability.
