A Room In The Garden
A Room in the Garden is part garden folly, part “other space”. It is intended to relieve the congestion of the urban home and provide a space for family members to work, play, read, sleep or to enjoy a moment of peace and quiet. Packed with innovation, it is designed as both product and building. It is intended to be simple enough for self-build assembly and reassembly, coming as a flat pack kit of parts, fully fabricated on a CNC machine. It is ultra low VOC both in assembly and use and embraces the principals of circular design in that it can be fully demounted and re- erected. The project has been featured in The Observer, Dezeen, The Sunday Times, The Architect’s Journal, Detail, Dwell, Baunetz, decorpunk magazine, The Sunday Telegraph and the Times, Dezeen: 12 Garden Offices, Dezeen: 8 Home Offices . The project was also shortlisted in the Architect’s Journal Small Project Awards and the Offsite Awards.
