When it comes to enhancing your outdoor space, choosing the right modular garden building can be a game-changer. Whether you’re looking for a private retreat, an at home office, or a creative studio, a well-designed modular garden building can transform your garden into a functional, stylish haven.
Our team of designers and architects understand that with so many options available, it can be challenging to know where to start. We appreciate that every homeowner has unique needs and preferences, which is why we’ve created this guide to help you choose the right garden building for your lifestyle.
Identify Your Garden Building Purpose
The first step in selecting a modular garden building is to define its main function. Understanding how you plan to use the space will guide your decision-making process and ensure you choose the right size pod and features.
For a dedicated space for work, art, or relaxation, a modular garden building offers the perfect environment. Modular doesn’t mean compromise so if you're looking to expand your living space or create a fully functional, multi-purpose building, a Living Pod offers more possibilities.
Do you need utilities? Pod Space modular garden buildings can be equipped with plumbing and utilities for longer stays. We’d recommend choosing a Living Pod if you want a space with remarkable flexibility such as our Fjell Pod Living.
Consider Your Available Space
Once you know how you plan to use your modular garden building, it’s important to assess your available space. The size of your garden will largely dictate the style and scale of the building that’s suitable for your property.
If you have a smaller garden or limited space, a compact garden pod might be the best option. These are perfect for creating a cosy home office or a creative space without taking up too much room. Our Neo Pod offers the ideal solution for any small garden.
If you have a larger outdoor area, you have more flexibility. A bigger living pod or multi-functional garden building can create additional rooms or offer more spacious layouts, allowing you to cater to a variety of needs. Our team are experts at listening to your ideas and creating bespoke plans to meet your vision.
Think About Budget and Long-Term Value
Although the initial cost may seem like a significant investment, remember that a well-designed modular garden building can add long-term value to your property. Whether it serves as extra living space, a functional home office, or simply enhances the overall aesthetic of your garden, a quality garden building can improve both your home’s value and your lifestyle.
Generally, Living Pods come with a higher cost due to their larger size and additional features, while Garden Pods offer a more cost-effective solution for smaller projects.
Your budget will play a significant role in choosing the right garden building. When planning your budget, don’t forget to account for site preparation (such as foundation work), and any additional features or customisation.
