Garden Room
A tucked-away sauna and restful space in Cheltenham
A sauna and restful space nestled amongst the undergrowth deep in the garden. A place to feel rejuvenated and refreshed.
Design inspiration for this project was taken from the client's family connection to Canada where Cedar shingles are commonly found in the local- vernacular architecture. This traditional style of cladding performs exceptionally well in wet climates due to the timber being split rather than sawn. |
Designed within the regulations of permitted development, the floor plan was drawn up to maximise the space in a triangular corner of the garden. The sauna utilises this rear corner location to provide a private and secluded relaxation area.
Beyond that, a wider social space faces out to the rest of the garden with a generous deck that provides an outdoor cooking area. Mature planting and a meandering path adds privacy and intrigue when approaching the cabin. |
