Can you stretch a building?

The Garden Room, Cheltenham, twists and rotates the form of the existing shed, to create a large play space, yoga studio and additional parking at the bottom of the client’s garden. Playing on the notion of a traditional garden shed, Garden Room is clad in charred timber to contrast the white regency facades of the neighbouring buildings.
