Garden room & store with glazed pergola
A Thermowood garden office and art studio with a hidden store at the back, joined to a pergola with glazing and a retractable roof over an L-shaped deck.
The owners of this stylish building have perfectly captured the indoor-outdoor living concept with their garden office and art studio, featuring a contemporary pergola with a retractable roof and windows.
They’ve created a versatile space where they can work, relax, or entertain throughout the year-whatever the British weather brings!
The fully insulated building was designed and built by AMC Garden Rooms, who worked closely with a specialist architectural pergola designer to seamlessly incorporate the covered outdoor seating area into the overall design.
This collaboration resulted in a unified and cohesive structure, where the two elements blend effortlessly.
Incorporating covered outdoor seating into garden room designs has become increasingly popular, but this is the first time we’ve seen one with both glazing and a retractable roof.
The exterior finishes are simple yet effective. The cladding is Thermowood, a Scandinavian Redwood treated at high temperatures to enhance its durability. Thermowood is a low-maintenance option, as it doesn’t require further treatment for protection.
The Anthracite Grey of the door and window frames is echoed in the composite decking and pergola framework, creating a coordinated look.
