Welcome to Rancho Verde, an outdoor sanctuary complimented by traditional Spanish Architecture nestled in the picturesque hills of Rancho Santa Fe. From the grand circle drive to the panoramic vista views, every detail of this design was carefully crafted to enhance the property’s natural beauty, functionality, and ambiance, fostering unforgettable experiences. If you're planning to use your new space as a home gym, you may need to factor in added extras to the design. These could include reinforced roof or floor joists to take the weight of the gym equipment, punchbags, weights and kettlebells. Love the idea of having a matching pergola alongside your garden room ideas?
Europe's best new building
The Garden Hide is many things to architects Kate Nicklin and Graham Mateer. It’s their place of work, the first home of their young practice Commonbond Architects, and soon perhaps their own home – temporarily – while they redevelop the tiny southeast London bungalow in whose garden it sits. More than that, at the self-built studio they have honed their own practical skills and refined their thinking about sustainable design, so it now stands as a statement of intent for the way they hope to practise.

If you have a passion for feasting al fresco, push the barbecue aside and go for a full-on kitchen in the garden. Kitted out with a grill, fridge, and sink, it will be a godsend when the heavens cloud over. An angular desk slots into one corner, with one side nestled below two generous high-level shelving units on the walls. Plywood was used across all of the surfaces, giving the interior a unified look that adds to the sense of spaciousness.

News from Dezeen Events Guide, a listings guide covering the leading design-related events taking place around the world. Lack of access to a garden doesn't have to be a limitation, as architect Edwards Moore demonstrated by building this artist's studio in a car park of an apartment block in Melbourne, Australia. Another cabin in a Hackney garden, the Sunday Stuga is surrounded by brick walls on three sides so features a zigzagging roof line to fit in a big window at the front. This black wooden box in a garden in Cambridge, England, was designed by Ben Davidson of London studio Rodić Davidson Architects around the proportions of his grandfather's old workbench and leftover panels of glazing. Built around an ash tree in the garden of a family home in Girona, north-east Spain, this timber-clad studio is shaped like a cross.
Add power via a lead or generator, or the hut can be designed for solar power and leisure batteries or an LPG gas supply. The founder of architecture studio Six Four Five A built storage into the wooden shell of his tiny studio, which he created in the garden of his Toronto home. From cantilevered shelves to customisable pegboards, our latest lookbook rounds up eight examples of garden studios with storage designed to make the most of limited space.
Even a small, narrow plot can provide enough space for garden room ideas. At just 2.5x2.5m, this contemporary garden building can add a valuable extra room, helping to ease pressure on a busy household. Options range from nifty garden pods, futuristic domes and spheres to classic timber summerhouses and lodges, so you can find a design that makes the best use of your outdoor space and your budget. Choose from ready-to-assemble products, made-to-order designs (where you can select your fittings and finishes from the manufacturers shortlist), and fully bespoke, unique buildings. Of course, you can always have a go at creating, building or adapting your own too, whether it’s starting from scratch or upcycling salvaged and architectural finds.
Honomobo’s mobile office is a simple, convenient space for garden studios or anywhere else. Its no-nonsense plug-and-play setup will have it ready within minutes of delivery. Mobo is crafted from a container and adapted as an office space with one end of glass, or two. This new-build, rustic-style contemporary garden room makes a striking addition to a garden and still has a traditional touch about it – but with all the mod cons.

With a pine tongue-and-groove interior, and finished in a corrugated tin or cedarwood, huts from Cotswold Shepherds Huts have us all a swoon to embrace the country living idyll. Jane and Martin Peace replaced a dilapidated garage with a very jazzy garden room, complete with a sauna and garden bar. They chose a large standalone timber structure for a contained building complete with open-plan living space and its other luxe features.
Here, the structure is left unpainted to reveal its natural grey colour and day-joints between six separate pours. Each is around 600mm deep – an arm’s length, and thus the furthest a builder can reach down into shuttering to tamp down the mix. In the serene hills of Shady Canyon, a unique pie-shaped lot is transformed into an entertainer’s paradise, blending Spanish charm with modern amenities. With a spacious shade structure, inviting gas firepit, and elevated pool area, it’s the perfect setting for year-round gatherings and summer relaxation. Adding a stunning garden room alongside your pool can give you a practical space that can be used for a number of different purposes.
Whatever your plans or needs, there are plenty of way to create the garden room you deserve. Contemporary garden rooms used as workspaces need not be visually intrusive or even resemble a traditional home office. Choosing a single module like this one with a unique timber structure and cool colour scheme is sure to add energy to your working from the garden day, to every day.
For a textural addition rooted in nature, install a timber backyard room. Go pale and blonde with tongue and groove for a simple Scandi cabin style, or choose an oak frame garden room design that will weather with time and blend beautifully into the gardenscape. Inside you can see the end result, and what a big part the right furniture and bold color play in completing the look. The floorboards are made from polished wood, doors have been installed, wooden shelves added, and yes, that is a fireplace in the middle of the room. The central blue pillar surrounding the fireplace acts as the focal point of the room, and the decor matches it, creating one cohesive, stylish garden studio. Daylight fills the sunken rooms through garden-facing windows, set above built-in bench seating, from which ribbed oak wainscotting extends around the base of subtly textured painted hempcrete walls.
Inside, the fire and seating area turns a simple glass structure into an inviting garden lounge. Insulated on two-and-a-half sides, this cedar building by IQ Glass features slim-framed sliding doors with an almost frameless effect, creating a stunning panorama even when closed. To keep options open, planning drawings amounted to little more than the most gestural squares and rectangles, says Mateer. In fact, they didn’t draw the building fully until after it was complete, working instead from sketches, evolving the design as they built. If you're furnishing a space that also benefits from generous decking ideas or outdoor access, look for all-weather pieces that can be enjoyed inside or out to maximize their use.
That is why our designs put a tremendous emphasis on careful plant selection and strategic placement to ensure that your property looks beautiful for years to come. Every project is assigned a Designer, Project Manager, Project Coordinator, and CAD Specialist to oversee every step of your project from start to finish. Designs are completed in 6-8 weeks, and include comprehensive details such as elevations, material specifications, and plant/lighting specifications. Amelia Wilson has a painted garden room, in blue, which makes it a seamless addition to the decked space.
Build it so that it slopes gently towards the house and you'll be able to enjoy the foliage, flowers, and wildlife from indoors too. A timber frame garden room that can be constructed in any shape, size, and wood type will allow you to in keeping with your garden's style too. Whether you want French doors and double windows, painted plywood interior walls and a tiled pitched roof – you could have it all. Create an experiential outdoor cinema with a projector and dive into seating galore! To transform your garden room into a boutique screening room as shown here, incorporate a statement wallpaper idea, and pop up a fun DIY neon sign. Get the corn popping, and invite around your crew for summer-loving movie marathons with a unique twist!
Faux rattan has all the charm of the real thing but can cope with the elements, as can outdoor rugs, weather-resistant cushions, recycled plastic and polypropylene rope pieces. The best wooden garden furniture is also a great option for a more timeless style. Oak, acacia and teak furniture will age and silver gracefully when left outside, but also works inside too and will last for years. Choose from ‘L’ or ‘P’ footprints or long and narrow layouts and incorporate exterior garden storage ideas – such as open shelving or tool hanging space – to maximize your design's potential. Roofs can be pitched or pent style (with a single slope) and openings for windows and doors scaled and positioned where needed. Unite the exterior of the new building with the rest of the garden, and ideally the ground floor of the house to create a sense of flow.
