RISE OF THE GARDEN BUILDINGS | TCS GEOTECHNICS

GARDEN CHILL OUT ROOMS & OUTDOOR OFFICES

2020 has seen a surge in the erection of outdoor garden buildings at residential properties and hospitality locations. With the furlough scheme initiated, homeowners found the time to focus on home projects and converted that unused garden space into a recreational or working area. Outdoor areas in pubs and bars, including chill-out areas, became very popular given the hospitality restrictions. Homeworking became a necessity for many and with 38% of homeworkers in 2020, and only 12% of people wishing to return to an office environment, it looks like home working is set to become the future norm.

LANDSCAPING YOUR GARDEN TO ACCOMMODATE AN OUTDOOR BUILDING

The installation of these buildings gives a dramatic new look to your garden space. It is equally as important to create an inviting approach and setting for your outdoor building to ensure it becomes an attractive feature that enhances your space and not just an isolated shed at the bottom of your garden. Landscaping your garden to accommodate your new space is key and TCS offers several products that can assist with your outdoor building’s aesthetic appeal.
