Home Offices, Studios and Lodges

Garden offices, Garden studios, Garden Lodges, Garden Studies, Garden Retreats ...come in all shapes and sizes. There are three important aspects in selecting your garden workspace; purpose, interior and exterior.

Whatever you wish to call your garden office, studio, study, or lodge ..it is your workspace and will become personal to you. ....whatever you call your garden workroom ... it aint a shed!

If you call it a shed, it will be teated like a shed and instead of being a respectable place of work, it will be a dumping ground for anything that won't go in the home. Set your rules and stick to them!

 

The ideal garden lodge for those working from home


So, lets not get into the politics of whether it is an office, studio, study or lodge. What we want are four walls, floor and ceiling, all fully insulated. We need to keep the heating economical and maintain the garden office heat. Then we need electrics to power the lighting and electric sockets.

Perhaps two or more rooms within, even a mini kitecken and toilet

Ergonomics is another new word that dictates how we sit and operate our equpment. Healh and safety rules encompass ergonomics and we cannot afford to dismiss them.

If your employer requests that you work from home, they have a duty of care to ensure that your workspace is not only adequate but reaches the many and various rules and regulations.

The exterior is a matter of choice and taste, together with bringing your garden office in line with its surroundings.

If it is only you ... the patio commuter or garden ofice space that is viewed by visitors and clients, you have to make the decision how you display your garfen office.
