Introducing Garden2Office
With deep experience in Swedish building methods, Garden2Office designs contemporary entertainment rooms that blend Nordic-inspired simplicity with practical, year-round comfort. Their portfolio ranges from compact pods perfect for gaming, hobbies, or quiet escapes, through to mid-sized social rooms for relaxing with family, and extra-large multi-room layouts suited to entertaining, dining, or film and media use.
Their insulated timber panel system forms a robust multi-layer wall construction that performs well in all seasons — ideal for buildings used day and evening throughout the year. Clients can personalise almost every aspect of the design, from the footprint and layout to the choice of glazing, finishes, and optional features, shaping a space that reflects how they want to unwind, socialise, or bring people together.
Clients may choose a full turnkey service covering foundations, installation, and final utility connections, or select a self-build kit for a more hands-on route using the same high-performance Swedish system.

Design
Four core ranges form the starting point for each design, all of which can be customised in size, layout, and finishes. Exterior options include natural timbers, coloured composite boards, or corrugated metal cladding for a more contemporary or industrial feel.
Interior choices include plastered and decorated walls, natural matchboard linings, or plywood finishes that reflect Scandinavian design principles. Additional soundproofing layers are available for music, gaming, or media rooms where a quieter environment is preferred.
Size & Layouts
Garden2Office offers entertainment rooms in small, medium, large, and extra-large footprints. Layouts can be shaped around specific uses — open-plan spaces for games tables or bar areas, seating zones for film nights, hobby corners, or multi-room formats with storage or ancillary rooms.
Flexible door and window placement helps set the atmosphere, from cosy enclosed rooms to brighter, more open spaces with views of the garden. Optional cloakrooms or waterless toilets can be integrated, and layouts are adapted to suit each plot and the planned style of entertainment.
ROOFLINES
Garden2Office offers several roofline styles across its ranges:
- Mono-pitched designs (Friggebod, SportsKabin, Kapsel) that sit under 2.5m for Permitted Development compliance.
- Dual-pitched designs in the Malmö range, creating a vaulted interior with standing seam metal roofing for added height and architectural character.
- Bespoke rooflines, including asymmetrical options, for clients seeking a unique style or specific internal volume.
These choices help shape the atmosphere — from intimate Scandinavian cabins to larger, more dramatic entertainment rooms.
APPROVAL PROCESS
Most designs can be kept within Permitted Development limits. When full planning is required — for example, for taller rooflines or specific placement in the garden — Garden2Office manages the application.
They are also experienced in producing Building Regulation-compliant specifications and securing Building Control sign-off where required.
SERVICE
Clients can choose between:
- Turnkey installation, including foundations, the full build, and final electrical connections for a ready-to-use room.
- Self-build kits, using the same insulated Swedish panel system, for those who prefer a hands-on approach.
Both options deliver a high-performance structure built for year-round entertainment and relaxation.
STRUCTURE
Garden2Office buildings are constructed using the Swedish insulated timber panel system, incorporating internal and external plywood sheathing for strength and stability. Roofing options include EPDM or standing seam metal.
Heating choices range from underfloor heating to air conditioning, with LED lighting and Ethernet cabling provided as standard — ideal for reliable media setups or gaming.
SITE CHALLENGES
Garden2Office’s adaptable specification allows designs to be tailored to the space available and the character of the garden. Access considerations are identified during the site survey, and materials can be supplied in manageable components where access is limited.
