With more people now working from home, beautiful spaces that can be used to both work in and spend time with the family are key.
Set within a suburban area, the garden office building is the main structure within the plot, which features a sedum roof that is mimicked in a storage area tucked away at the side of the building. A metal pergola structure and two metal arches add height and create separation between the areas, without fully blocking them off. There is a separate access to the right side of the garden, keeping clients and business visitors from entering the family home. The raised planter along the front face acts as a boundary, separating the drive and enclosing the garden space.
Amelanchiers are positioned to the left of the plot, chosen for their airy canopy and to give a good shape and coverage towards the boundary. Cercis with their large, colourful leaves are positioned at the front face to add interest and allow surrounding plants to stand out.
