A home lifestyle solution
By Paul Ransom, Co-Founder, Into The Garden Room
In recent years, demand for bespoke garden rooms has skyrocketed. What began as a luxury extra has become one of the most adaptable and meaningful ways to expand how we live.
With the property market uncertain and the cost of moving climbing higher than ever, more people are turning to their gardens — creating spaces that are functional, flexible, and deeply personal.

we’ve seen a dramatic shift in how these spaces are being used. Our clients are designing multi-purpose rooms that evolve with them: home offices that double as creative studios, wellness suites that transform into guest spaces, and light-filled rooms that bring balance to busy lives.
One of the biggest trends right now is what we often call the “teenage hangout room.” But truthfully, that label doesn’t quite fit anymore. Many young adults are now staying at home well into their twenties and thirties, and these rooms offer something crucial: a sense of independence.

They’re close enough
to stay connected to family, yet separate enough to give privacy, space, and freedom — a small but powerful shift that makes family living more harmonious for everyone.
For parents, these spaces bring breathing room back into the home. For young adults, they create the first real step towards independence, comfort, and self-expression.
From fitness studios
and wellness retreats to flexible workspaces and family annexes, garden rooms are redefining how we live, not as add-ons, but as extensions of who we are.
Come and visit us at The Glasshouse Collective in Chobham, Surrey, and see how design, craft, and purpose come together to create space that truly works for modern life.
