Home Office: a Primer on Garden Rooms
August 20th, 2010Nothing separates individuals as the matter of working from home. On one side, people say telecommuting is fantastic, there’s no commute, no lost time by just having to be in one location for a set time, no pointless meetings, no soporiferous small-talk around the water cooler. On the other side of the argument, others say they just couldn’t generate the self-control that’s needed to work at home. They might be a tad emabarrassed to send any clients to their house. There’s just too many distractions to even get started. Finally, the office is wonderful simply because they wish to get away from home life.
Well now there’s an option for these naysayers : the garden room. Garden rooms (or garden studios) are constructed in your own garden, not adjoining your house. A garden office gives you an opportunity to work in a composed, free thinking surrounding, with greenery all around you, and a serene location to conduct get togethers.
The fact that the garden studio is isolated from your household is a crucial one. It gives you a chance to break away from domesticity to your business. Utilizing technology like the internet and VOIP, it’s painless to obtain your own telephone number just for the garden studio.
Think about further advantages of a garden office:-
- They’re eco-friendly : the commute from household to garden takes only natural footprints, not carbon ones
- That short journey spares you a great amount of petrol costs, and might allow for the possibility that your family requires only one car, not two
- You can conduct business at anytime. Creativity can’t be turned on and off like a tap, so if you have a new plan, or just desire to finish off a task in good time, walk into the garden studio
- It’s a soothing, bright, natural environment. No sick building syndrome here. No glaring light strips, grey partitions and cubicles
Garden rooms can recoup their costs fairly quickly, and loan repayments for a garden office are often comparable, or less than, office rental costs.
