Professional sound studio in the garden
A Garden Spaces sound studio with 9sqm inside, built without windows, with an acoustic porch, a layered acoustic build-up over a SIPs core and sockets placed around the client's equipment.
A compact 9 sqm of internal space is all that’s needed for this soundproof garden studio to deliver exceptional performance. Garden Spaces, renowned for their acoustic garden rooms, has developed a studio specification that maximises both thermal and acoustic insulation, ensuring excellent sound control.

Discreet exterior design
From the outside, this sound studio is purposefully modest in appearance-designed without windows to enhance acoustic performance. The exclusion of windows is deliberate; windows can leak sound, and their absence provides the highest level of soundproofing.
SIPs core structure
Garden Spaces uses Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) at the core of each build, creating a highly insulated shell that keeps the studio warm in winter and cool in summer. SIPs alone offer better soundproofing than many other construction systems, but for clients who need enhanced acoustic performance, Garden Spaces provides advanced soundproofing options.
Superior acoustic performance
This particular client required a studio with outstanding soundproofing. In addition to the SIPs core, they chose a sophisticated soundproofing specification that includes:
- Metal furring strips
- Resilient bars
- Decoupling methods
- Acoustic mineral wool
- Acoustic plasterboard
- Rubber underlay
- Acoustic rubber membrane
- Acoustic glazing
The studio also features an acoustic porch. Doors are a common weak point for sound leakage; adding a vestibule with double doors significantly reduces this sound loss, ensuring superior sound isolation.
Precision electrical planning
The studio’s design includes a meticulously planned electrical layout tailored to the client’s equipment setup. Garden Spaces collaborated closely with the client to position sockets and switches exactly where needed, achieving a millimetre-perfect arrangement for seamless functionality.
