PROJECT OVERVIEW

This superb bespoke multifunctional garden room has been designed for our clients in New Milton.

Measuring 5.5m x 4m, this garden room is being used as an outside entertaining area, with stunning views over the gardens.

The canopy area is ideal for hosting BBQ’s, perfect for entertaining friends and family in the summer months.

The exterior of the garden room has a contemporary aesthetic thanks to the mix of Western Red Cedar on the garden facing elevations and dark grey Cedral on the side and rear walls.  The two materials work well together aesthetically, the grey Cedral picking up the colour of the door frames and trims. The two materials are also long-lasting, low-maintenance choices.

To help preserve the lovely reddish brown colouring of the Western Red Cedar, we applied a UV-oil to each board. Without the oil, Cedar will start to weather to a silvery grey, which doesn’t affect the durability of the timber but can make the building look aged. UV oil is easy to reapply every few years to keep the protection up.

Cedral is a cement fibre board that comes in a range of different colours. The colour is added during manufacturing, and painting is not required to maintain the colour, a great maintenance free option.

The interior has been plastered and decorated to create a modern, light-filled room. Enhancing the natural light levels in the room is a large skylight, the remote-controlled Velux window comes with a rain sensor to close automatically.

Electrical connections to the house include LED down lights, smoke alarm, heating, power sockets, WiFi and external lighting.

The anthracite bi-fold doors on this garden room create a light and airy internal space, with stunning views over the garden.

An outside tap has been fitted to the exterior of the garden room. This bespoke feature will make it easier for our clients to water the end of the garden.

Build time 3 weeks.
