This backyard garden studio with a modern design provides a comfortable and stylish retreat for a home office, art studio, cottage bunkie or for backyard entertaining. The layout features two built in work stations, and a built-in sofa bench that can be used for reading, watching televisions or an afternoon nap. A second story loft provides space for storage, a kid's play area or a separate space for lounging. With a footprint just over 100 square feet, this studio makes efficient use of space while minimizing the footprint of the backyard and may be constructed without a permit in many jurisdictions (check your local building code).

Garage and Granny Flat Design Ideas

Garages and granny flats can be used to store large, infrequently used items, outdoor supplies, seasonal decor or items that simply don’t fit inside the house. They can also be used as recreational rooms or can be converted into granny flats or studios, with sufficient ventilation, light and insulation. Use as a separate home office is on the rise, as is building self-contained granny flats which can be sub-let for passive income. Whatever your project is, take a look at this Houzz image gallery to see how you can maximise this often overlooked space. If you're looking to get started building or renovating yours, you'll be able to find the right architect to help get you started in our professional directory. If your granny flat should be self-contained, a kitchen designer may also be helpful.
