So, you’ve been working from home for a while now, but you’ve never felt truly comfortable in your home office space. Whether you’ve set up your workspace at the kitchen table, in the living room, or have transformed the spare room into a makeshift home office, you risk having a proper space to call your own.
This can severely hamper your productivity, efficiency and work life balance. What’s more, the comings-and-goings of your family make it impossible to get enough peace and quiet. So what’s the solution? There are few things better than a back garden office which gives you a specific place to work from home without feeling you’re at home.
And why wouldn’t you want a garden office space? Rather than being cooped up inside, you can enjoy the tranquillity of nature. Furthermore, you eliminate your commute and keep the house the way it should be – for relaxation and family time.
Garden office space design and build
Before you build a home office in garden spaces, it’s important to consider the design and the build. Garden Rooms 365 offers high-quality garden office layout design and build options for every space. This includes steel screws that secure the foundations and require no digging, with the job completed with minimal noise and disruptions that saves money and is environmentally friendly.
Our home office buildings for the garden include multiple door and window options. We also build sturdy walls that provide breathability and include all the essentials, such as sockets and lighting to make your garden office as comfortable as possible.
Garden office layout
No matter what home office outbuilding ideas appeal to you, we have a solution to suit your needs. We will analyse your outdoor space to ensure the proposed office shape and layout works for you. Our custom garden rooms will be designed to match your specific requirements, so there is plenty of space to work, play and relax comfortably all year round.
For the external aspects, you have the choice of double doors or large glass doors that let in as much natural light as possible and decking for you to enjoy the midday sun on your lunch break.
Garden offices interior ideas
Garden office interior design is always important. Whether you’re looking for a space that encourages productivity, creativity or tranquillity, you have complete control over how you decorate your office.
As this is your personal space, there is no limit to what you can achieve. In fact, every element of your internal design can be fine-tuned including finishing touches that tuck away unsightly wires from electrical equipment

Regulations for garden buildings
Before deciding which outside office ideas work best for you, you must consider potential building regulations and planning permission. We do not build garden rooms that attach to the house, although we will build within 500 mm of any existing structure, whether your house or your fence.
You will need to check local building regulations and permissions before getting in touch with us. This is because the garden rooms must match specific standards if it is to be used for health and safety reasons. Planning permission rules state that a garden room mustn’t cause obstructions or be too close to your neighbours. They must also not detract from the surroundings if you live in an area of outstanding natural beauty.
However, as our garden rooms are freestanding, it is unlikely you will need planning and building permission. Our garden offices fall under “permitted development” which is the same category as sheds or summer houses, allowing a quick process that makes it easier for our team to construct your dream garden office. Despite this, we still recommend double-checking with the local planning authority before contacting us to prevent disappointment.
Other ideas for your garden building
You may have the garden office idea fixed in your head, but there are plenty of other garden retreats you can create with a little imagination. Consider that your garden outdoor office doesn’t always have to be a place for you to work, especially if you end up returning to the office full-time or retire.
A garden room truly is a multipurpose space, allowing you to reappropriate it as your life and requirements change.
Here are some other ways you can make use of your extra space:
Barbers/hair salon garden room
Your garden salon or barbershop can offer a unique and private place for clients, ensuring a personalised and professional experience.
Nail salon garden room
Nail technicians have also found success with a garden room. A table and comfortable chairs are enough to get started, but you’ll also need a light fixture above to ensure visibility.
Green retreats/garden pods
A garden room can simply act as a green retreat, seamlessly blending the beauty of the outside with the comforts of the inside. Imagine a space where you can unwind after a long day, surrounded by lush greenery and the soothing sounds of nature. This retreat offers a sanctuary where you can relax, read a book, practice yoga, or meditate, all while enjoying the benefits of natural lighting that filters through large windows and glass doors.
Garden room for music lessons
Rather than cause a ruckus inside your home, a garden room for music lessons is perfect. It will require sound insulation, of course, but it’s a fantastic way to teach up-and-coming maestros, or simply practise your drums, guitar, piano, or even the ukulele without disturbing the family and neighbours.
Photography studio garden room
Passionate photographers can use their garden office room as a professional studio. From modelling shoots to product photographs, or even abstract ideas that play around with light and shadow, a garden room offers plenty of potential.
Dance studio garden room
Large garden office options can offer the chance for dance studios. These are bigger than your average garden office, but they are a great way to practise either alone or with your troupe.
Osteopathy garden room
Massage therapists and physiotherapists need enough space for a massage table and enough space to bend, twist and ease sore muscles. Your garden room could be the perfect spot for this, especially if you add some soothing sounds and rejuvenating fragrances.
Garden room for childcare
You may remember the Wendy houses of your youth, and these garden rooms take that to a luxurious next level. If you need the kids out of the house but still on your property, a garden room for childcare can keep them entertained if you fill it with games, toys, and more. Plus, you can set a desk and chair up and give them a quiet place to finish their homework.
Garden room for a personal trainer
You already know how important fitness is, but if you can’t get to the gym, a garden room for personal training is the next best thing. Professional trainers can also welcome clients over for a session, meaning you don’t need to book out studios at the local gym.
Garden room art studio
Garden transforms your garden room into an art studio and feels inspired by the wondrous beauty of the surrounding nature. From sounds to sights, it is a superb way to tap into your creativity.
Hobby room
A garden building can also serve as an ideal hobby room, providing a dedicated space where you can immerse yourself in what you love to do. After a successful day’s work, there is nothing quite like being able to step out of the house and into a space that is exclusively yours, where home life can take a short break. Whether your passion lies in painting, model-building, sewing, knitting, or even playing board games, a hobby room in the garden allows you to fully indulge in your interests without the distractions of everyday living. It can be a quiet retreat where creative juices can flow freely, giving you the perfect environment to focus, relax, and recharge.
Whatever you choose to use your garden room for, you can be sure it will be a valuable and much-used addition to your home. So don’t limit yourself to just a garden office – let your imagination run wild and create a unique space that brings joy and fulfilment into your life.
