Along with the rapid improvements in technology and the speed of Internet communications, working from home has vastly increased in the past few years. Office rental is costly, so it’s common for people to convert an area of their home into a home office. But have you ever considered moving that home office into the garden? Before you think we’ve lost the plot, read more about why we believe a garden office is much better than a home office.

With permission from the local planning office, you can still employ people to work for you because you can have large, stylish, bespoke garden office. If you want to employ several people, you don’t want them using your home as their workplace and you can’t easily squeeze them all into your spare bedroom. However, with a garden office, you can easily increase the size of your workspace or choose a larger design of garden office and give your employees plenty of room to work. Well, you didn’t think we were talking about shoving a desk in the shed did you?

With a garden office, you get the best work/home life balance. Whilst it’s just a short walk to work in the morning, you can be back at home for lunch, or to let the dog out, or fetch the kids from school. However, when you need to focus on work, you can close the door, and immerse yourself in your business, safe in the knowledge that when it’s time to clock-off, you won’t be stuck on the Tube on the way home. What’s more, unlike your home office, the postman, neighbours, and salesmen that come to your front door throughout the day won’t disturb you as you are separated from the main house by your sheltered position in the garden.

The garden office allows you to have a professional looking workspace that is separate from you home, meaning that you can bring clients or customers into your garden office, without them traipsing through your home, tripping over your children’s toys or tangling with the cat. Save your home space for you and your family by converting some of your garden into a home garden office.

With a garden office, you have the power to decide the exact size, shape and layout of the office that you want, rather than having to squeeze it into a small box room in your home.

Of course, if your office is placed in the garden, you can also benefit from alternative energy supplies such as mini wind turbines or solar panels. This means you can have a bespoke office that also gives something back to the environment.

Lastly, if you want to move house, you will find that you garden office adds value to your house and is an excellent selling point. Garden rooms of all types inspire potential house buyers because of their varied uses.
