Shed and Granny Flat Design Ideas

This is a stunning and practical solution for a gardener keen to “grow their own”; the greenhouse with integral shed means that equipment is close to hand whenever and whatever is needed.

A bespoke garden room for our clients in Coulsdon Surrey. The room was from our signature range of rooms and based on the Twilight Room goalpost design. The clients wanted a fully bespoke room to fit snuggling against the boundary of their slopped property overlooking the Garden and family house, the room was to be a multifunctional space for all the family to use. The room needed to work as a break space, with a lounge and TV HIFI. A home office with desk and sink and fridge and a fitness studio with Yoga mats and Peleton bike. The room featured 3 leaf bi-fold doors with inbuilt privacy glass, it was clad in Shou Sugi Ban burnt Larch cladding. Internally it featured a built-in sink and storage with a fridge and side Pencil window and was further complimented with a roof lantern with LED strip lighting. The room was heated and cooled with inbuilt air conditioning.

This gorgeous garden gym and rear shed in Grandpont, Oxford, was a complex but interesting project - built around a large evergreen tree! We love working with our natural environment and think the end result is rather lovely. The clients are really active and wanted a flexible space, mainly for a home gym but also with office space. The project was slow to start as we had to move out a few tons of spoil and an old shed through the beautiful finished basement kitchen. S pace was tight and the ground was dug by hand for levelling and pipework but we found a route for the waste pipe and electric supply via a very kind neighbours wall. We designed the cedar slat fence after the clients saw the finish on the garden room. The walls that butt directly up to the neighbours are metal clad. They plumped for an air conditioning system and a hot water tank system. Bathroom fittings were chosen by the clients. A waterproof vinyl floor for the bathroom area is complimented by an engineered oak main floor. It is fully plastered and decorated with interior by Inside Out Oxford. We also designed in two bifold doors at the front, which is unusual but opens up beautifully. We covered the walkway and made two openings for light and to allow rainwater to reach the tree roots. We are now designing a garden to compliment the building, including a slate chipping path. The clients discussed and chose the cladding and building with the neighbours to lessen its impact.

The garden office by the pond was a completely bespoke design, conceived to meet our clients every need. To create his perfect office space, we needed to know more about how he worked, what he needed to store or have close to hand, and what he did when taking a well-earned break. As we discovered his workflow and passions, it became clear to us as we found the correct proportions and floor plan for the client that we needed to design and build bespoke shelving and a stunning one-off desk to establish his perfect layout.

The large greenhouse at THE PIG on the Beach is at the very heart of an idyllic kitchen garden. We worked closely with the team THE PIG on the beach to ensure the greenhouse was located in a natural setting within the garden. Attached to the wall at each gable end, the greenhouse is an integral feature of the garden. The greenhouse is used by the Kitchen Garden team in producing crops for their home-grown menu, as well as a spot for guests to look around during their stay.
