If you pressed us to pick a favourite garden room, it would probably be a pitched roof design. The Malmo range by Garden2Office being one of our favourites. This is because the pitched roofline creates a wonderful interior space. The vaulted ceiling that is created offers a much more airy room than a mono-pitch garden room provides.
The extra headroom that is created by a dual pitched roof garden room would be if you were creating a home gym.
Add a mezzanine floor in a garden room
One of the reasons we like the Malmo range by Garden2Office so much is that if you want, they can add a mezzanine floor. This could form a sleeping deck or somewhere to just sit quietly with a book. Remember, if you plan to sleep in your garden room it must comply with Building Regulations. Experienced designers like Garden2Office will be able to advise you on this during a site survey.
The Garden2Office team have been sharing the build progress of a Malmo with a mezzanine floor on Instagram. As we can see, the second floor is designed so that it doesn't reduce the ceiling height in the area below. This clever layout is obviously going to have a cloakroom under the mezzanine floor.
The Garden2Office team went on to install a space-saving ladder leading up to the deck. They have also fitted a balustrade to prevent falls.
As we can see from these images, the mezzanine deck is painted so that it becomes an integral part of the structure.

Garden2Office is one of the few companies we know to offer mezzanine floors in their garden rooms, so if it is a feature that appeals to you, they are the people to talk with!
