Create the perfect studio space
This larch structure covered with reclaimed slate roof is designed to be used as an artist studio. A smooth transition to a decked area increases the amount of available space for work and relaxation.
This type of garden furniture is ideal if you need specific lighting conditions or need a separate area away from the hubbub of the house. Most artists prefer the North indirect light during work, so if that is what you will use for your room, consider this when deciding on the location and orientation of all roof lights and the Windows.

Revel in a room with a living wall

Set up a home office 'outdoor'
If you are more on productivity than all-round relaxation, a contemporary workspace as it could be for you. The space has been kept deliberately spartan to emphasize the simplicity and beauty of the materials. Who needs decoration with this beautiful color and texture of wood and plywood - not to mention the greenery?
windows
From floor to ceiling makes the space feel in harmony with the garden, while the position of the office allows the owner to enjoy the light and close the window.
