Outdoor SunSpaces News

SunSpaces garden rooms are the perfect solution if you’re looking to escape from all the stresses and worries in your life and have somewhere that you can take time out and enjoy your own space. With all the protection from the elements that you need, you’ll be able to appreciate your garden no matter the weather. With the ability to have your garden room created to meet your exact needs and specifications, you should have no worries about creating your dream outdoor living space.

 

As a result of being able to have your garden room designed to match your specific requirements, you have the ability to create a truly unique space that stands out from any other within your home. To help you do this, we list a few things for you to consider below.

 

Horizon Garden Room 

Shape

The shape and feel of your garden room is not all down to the ideas of an architect. A number of influencing factors exist, such as the design of your home and outdoor space, that will determine the shape that your garden room is built in. To create an unusual garden room that is different from regular garden rooms, the shape that it is built in is definitely something worth thinking about, where the most unique spaces tend to stray away from the normal box shape.

Bespoke Design Features

The most unusual garden rooms are created around detailed specifications and your garden. This includes windows and doors, which should be designed to provide the best possible accessibility and vantage. Using special configurations whereby you are able to decide how many windows and where the windows and door in your garden room are located, you can create a space that is truly unique to your outdoor living space.

Varying/Optional Window Sizes

Not every garden room is used for the same purpose, with many created to take advantage of the furniture inside or surrounding views. A way to do this is to create a garden room with varying or optional window sizes. To create a truly unique garden room, you could try to implement a range of varying window sizes or shapes that will really catch the eye of anyone who visits.

Furniture & Fittings

One of the simplest ways in which you can create an outdoor living space that really stands out from others is the furniture and features that you choose to use within it. Here you can either go for an uncommon theme that you can stick to throughout the entire space, or utilise truly unusual centrepieces that will draw the attention of all. Again, the way in which your garden room is built can be manipulated to draw the attention of guests, for example, light fittings, shade systems or the material used on the roof.

 

These are just a number of things that you can utilise and manipulate in order to create an unusual garden room that is like no other. Each can be tailored and customised exactly to your liking, no matter how unique. Here at SunSpaces, we strive to make creating your dream outdoor living space a process that is as easy and stress-free as possible. As a result, we offer a FREE 3D design service whereby if you have an idea of what you want your garden room to look like, our CAD engineers can make your garden room dreams a reality.

Garden rooms
 
SunSpaces customers have a near-infinite range of different options to choose from when purchasing their garden rooms, but one of the biggest choices you'll have to make before you install your new outdoor retreat is whether to choose fixed panels and sliding doors.

What are fixed panels?

Fixed-panel garden rooms have fixed windows and standard doors which open outwards from the structure itself. These structures are extremely secure, and many people feel that the 'framed' look is better suited to more traditional outdoor designs. We offer three standard colours here at SunSpaces (Graphite Grey, Cream, and White), but customised RAL colours are available too, allowing you to match your garden structure to the colour of your property.
 
If you like the idea of fixed panels, take a look at our Sanctuary Garden Rooms
 

What are sliding walls?

If you wish to achieve a more modern appearance with your SunSpaces garden room, you may prefer our 'sliding wall' option. These structures have glass walls which double as sliding doors - you can slide them open to let the sunshine in, and close them when the weather gets colder. Sliding wall garden rooms are ideal for creating a seamless transition between your home and your garden.

If you'd like any further information about your side panelling options, don't hesitate to give a member of our SunSpaces team a call. They will happily talk through the ideas you have for your project and be able to offer their advice on the right style of side panelling for you!
 
 

Here at SunSpaces we love seeing how our products are used to transform gardens and homes into outdoor spaces of luxury. Recently this has been the case yet again as a very satisfied customer has had one of our stunning Panorama Glass Rooms installed onto the rear of their home, to give them a more bespoke living experience. The 5x3m space was installed on-site through our professional garden room installation team, enabling the home-owners to relax and watch all of the hard work get done in order to bring their vision to life. 

 

 

Our Panorma Glass Room with Sliding Walls are perfect if you’re looking to add a touch of sophistication and luxury to your home. Coming with a modern look and stylish sliding walls, our glass rooms enable you to enjoy your outdoor space no matter the weather without posts or pillars spoiling your view. Our Glass Rooms are available in almost any size that you require and come in a range of four distinct colours, however we are able to provide customised colours, bringing a truly bespoke and tailored experience to your glass room. With a range of additional options such as roofing materials, gutters, lighting and heating, these are truly the ideal choice when it comes to transforming your outdoor space!

Your home is completely unique to you, and we at SunSpaces want to keep it that way! We are one of the only companies in the UK who specialise in bespoke garden rooms; this means that instead of selling you a standard, 'off-the-shelf' product, we want to hear all about the ideas you have for your SunSpace so that we can help you to make those ideas a reality.
 
If you'd like to add a garden room to your property, here are some of the options that we can offer you:
 

Lots of different sizes and shapes

SunSpaces are built using a modular system that's almost infinitely customisable. We offer an extensive selection of standard sizes, but if you have something specific in mind, we'll be more than happy to discuss your ideas and provide a bespoke solution.

Your choice of colours

Our verandas and garden rooms can be supplied in practically any colour you like; we offer three colours as standard (Graphite Grey, Cream, and White) but if you'd like something a little more singular, we can use customised RAL colours to meet your requirements.

Top-quality flooring materials

How you floor your SunSpace is entirely up to you; however, we at SunSpaces can supply you with composite wood decking and/or porcelain paving slabs if either of these appeals to you. Both options are extremely low-maintenance, with a range of contemporary styles and colours to choose from!
 
TimberTech decking and PrimaPorcelain tiles

Optional accessories

We offer a huge range of accessories to complement our verandas and garden rooms, including heaters, LED spotlights, coloured sun shades, gutter covers, and a choice of roofing materials.

Anything else?

The British climate can be challenging. Take the last two weeks as a prime example – Easter half-term has come and gone and the weather has not exactly been warm and welcoming!  Even when it's not windy, it may be showery. When it's not sunny, it may be windy. And when the temperature drops just that little more, basking in the sunlight is but a desire.   The solution to this is to add a glass room or veranda to your home.


The solution: A Glass Room


Glass rooms are exactly that, an additional room made of glass. Protected from the rain, wind and marginal temperatures, you can relax and be in your garden for many more months each year.

The rooms are designed to your exact needs, and many people choose to have the ability to open up the glass walls on all sides. This allows you to shield yourself from the predominant wind direction while the sun is making you nice and warm. Or perhaps the sun is doing too good a job! Open the windward side and have a nice cool breeze to keep you just at the right temperature.

 



Verandas and glass rooms extend your living space by making the garden part of your home. The immediate transition of inside-to-outside now has a zone. You can either  sit inside your SunSpace and be protected from the elements, or you  can open up the sides and enjoy the sweet fragrances from the flowers and enjoy listening the sounds of nature coming from your garden space.


Another reason to sit back and relax is that these glass rooms add genuine resale value to your home. These high-quality extensions are very low maintenance. You will spend more time relaxing!

 

 

A Mediterranean  Lifestyle


Grab a book, a drink, and sink back into a comfy couch. Enjoy the sound of the rain tapping on the glass. Get sleepy as the sun warms you. Your glass room turns another spring or autumn day into a day in your garden.

Some people bring the garden into their glass room. Container vegetable gardening, ferns, or flowers, there are many ways to make the space even more pleasant. The transition from your home into your garden will be even more successful.

Because these rooms are designed specifically for your home, they can take advantage of any kind of space. Space you might have considered unusable because of its shape, size, or location becomes your favourite spot to sit back and let the worries of the day fade away.

 

 

Bring Luxury to your Home Today


Arrange for someone from SunSpaces to come and see you and discuss your requirements.   From a modern veranda through to a fully insulated glass room with automated lighting, shade, and climate control – we can cater for all your needs.

So, next time you feel trapped in your own home because of inclement weather, think about how nice it would be to have a glass room of your own.
