Imagine a room designed entirely around the needs of your craft—a dedicated space where creativity can flow freely, and everything remains just as you left it. Now picture this haven in your garden. A garden room can transform this vision into reality.
Garden rooms have become a popular choice for creative spaces, offering versatility and functionality. This pottery studio by Miniature Manors showcases how a garden room designer can tailor an outdoor building to meet specific requirements.
A Pottery Studio at Home
Miniature Manors' client previously rented a pottery studio but found balancing work, family life, and travelling to the studio increasingly difficult. Installing a pottery studio in her garden allowed her to enjoy her craft conveniently between family commitments and save on rental costs.
Thanks to the insulated, multi-layer construction of Miniature Manors' buildings, the studio is comfortable to use year-round—no matter the weather.
A Design That Fits Seamlessly
The client opted for a minimalist yet stylish design that complemented her garden. Miniature Manors' Garden Pod offered the perfect solution. Measuring 2.5m x 3.7m, the studio nestles beautifully among the existing planting.
- Exterior Features: The building is clad in vertical tongue-and-groove Redwood, its honeyed tones pairing perfectly with Anthracite Grey uPVC door and window frames.
- Interior Features: The walls and ceiling feature a high-spec plastered and decorated finish. While laminate flooring is a common choice, this studio required an easy-to-clean surface, so durable tiles were fitted—ideal for handling clay spills and kiln heat.
Customised for Creativity
Miniature Manors tailored the studio to the client's specific needs:
- Safety First: An emergency stop button was installed near the kiln to ensure safe use.
- Ventilation: A ventilation fan works alongside the opening window to maintain airflow, essential for a pottery workspace.
- Heat Resistance: The tiled floor is better equipped to withstand the heat generated by the kiln.
This project demonstrates Miniature Manors' ability to create functional, attractive, and personalised garden rooms.
