In this case study, we showcase our exceptional Garden Room with Canopy design, located in Solihull, UK.
This project was all about creating a spacious, versatile multi-functional room, and the results exceeded even our own expectations! We were thrilled to be recommended for this job by a previous client—a testament to the quality of our work.
Our process began with a detailed discussion of the room’s primary uses. Once the functions were defined, we collaborated with the client to determine the best layout for the partition walls. With the structure mapped out, we carefully selected materials and finalised the placement of all fixtures to ensure every detail was perfect.
The foundation consists of a durable concrete pad, ensuring a stable base for the entire structure. This sturdy foundation supports the weight of the building and provides long-lasting reliability.
The structure is built using a 100mm deep, 1.6mm light-gauge steel frame. The frame is designed with insulated cavities, enhancing thermal performance and creating an energy-efficient system. This lightweight yet robust frame ensures strength and durability.
The front cladding is made from premium Red Western Cedar with 80mm coverage and a secret-fixed shadow-lined gap for a sleek, modern look. Finished with clear Osmo UV oil, it preserves its natural colour and protects against weathering. At the client’s request, narrower boards were used for added contrast, enhancing the wood’s grain and texture.
The sidewalls and backwall are clad with 100mm insulated micro rib panels in an elegant Anthracite finish. These panels provide a clean, contemporary look while offering excellent insulation. The design ensures both functionality and style, maintaining a modern appearance while improving energy efficiency.
The roof features a 40mm insulated box profile panel in Anthracite for durability and style.
The space includes powder-coated aluminium bifold and composite doors (RAL 7016 – Anthracite), designed for functionality and a sleek finish.
Various top-hung opening and fixed panel windows in powder-coated aluminium (RAL 7016 – Anthracite) provide natural light and ventilation.
The gym/office walls are finished with a professionally plastered skim and spray-painted finish, while the bike store features durable 11mm OSB board for practicality.
The interior is equipped with brushed chrome sockets, switches, fire-rated downlights, and a certified consumer unit for a modern and functional electrical setup.
To ensure comfort throughout the year, the room is equipped with a glass panel wall-mounted heater. This heating solution offers efficient warmth during colder months, allowing you to enjoy the space in any season.
The garden room’s external lighting fixtures include brushed steel fire-rated downlights within the canopy, providing a warm and inviting ambiance during evening hours. Additionally, a Ring security floodlight and camera offer peace of mind and added security to the property.
The room features a 12mm Oak grey laminate floor with absorption underlay, providing a durable and visually appealing flooring solution. For added versatility, EPDM rubber gym tiles and artificial grass are used in the bike store area, creating a comfortable and practical space for storage and exercise.
The Anthracite zero maintenance composite decking solution adds a touch of elegance and longevity to the garden room. With its sleek and modern design, the decking perfectly complements the overall aesthetic of the project. The canopy, constructed with a full powder-coated aluminium soffit and fascia system in Anthracite (RAL 7016), not only enhances the architectural appeal but also provides shelter and protection from the elements.
