Tips For Creating a Cosy Garden Office

When you are looking to add a garden office to your home, you need to think about more than how it will look when it is built.

Many people want a garden office that is visually appealing, both inside and out m, but, they are also  likely looking to create a space that is comfortable to relax in too, meaning you must look at ways to balance the space with function and comfort.

So, here are some tips on how to do that!

Keep It Small(ish)

One of the tips for creating a cosy garden office is to keep it small, unless you want to apply for planning permission (you don't!).

When you build a garden office, depending on what you intend to use the space for, you don't want it to dominate your garden. That can end up with you having no green space to relax in, and, it can drive up the costs of keeping the heating costs down in the winter.

Put In Heating

To keep all of your garden rooms cosy and easy to work in, it is worth looking into heating systems. These can be simple plug-in heaters, or you can opt to have a mini boiler system installed on the side of your garden office, which can keep you (and any clients) warm in the winter months.

Make It Bright

Cosy does not equate to dark.

In this sense, when you are designing a garden office, you will want to add as much natural light as you can. This will help minimise electricity bills and ensure that you have a natural supply of dopamine throughout the day to keep you focused.

Of course, come winter, you will need to install some lighting options, to help you get through those early evenings, which, if chosen carefully, can make the garden room design pop and look very classy.

Colour Coordination Is Key

When your garden office is built, you will be working from home in the space. This means that if you have clients, you will be holding meetings with them in your home office, and one thing that will bring the building together is colour coordination.

You can opt for many colour schemes for your garden office, with the obvious ones being black and white, or even black, white, and grey. However, many artsy types opt for white with green, white with blue, or even white with red, and so on. When it comes to garden office ideas, these can help make the space more welcoming and feel more like a mini home.
