What is Unique About a Contemporary Summer House?

A modern summer house is defined by its design. Each building typically has a number of features that look modern, primarily big floor-to-ceiling windows without any lattice or georgian framing. With expansive windows of this style being popular in modern housebuilding, equipping them on a summerhouse gives an immediately distinctive modern look.

Another feature common on modern garden houses is a low-pitch pent roof. Another distinctively modern design feature, pent roofing only slopes one way to provide directed drainage and a sleek silhouette.

Other modern features include wide opening double doors with inset windows that blend into the windowed facade. Insulation is another popular feature - whether you decide to buy one of our insulated garden rooms or install summerhouse insulation yourself.

Tips For Pairing with a Contemporary Garden

One of the main draws of these summer houses are their ability to pair well with a modern garden setting. If you have or are designing a garden in a more contemporary style, there’s no better companion. Not only will they fit aesthetically, but in their diverse functionality and their ability to cater to a more home-based lifestyle.

To enhance the combination even further, there’s a few things you could do to make your summerhouse and your garden look even better.

  • Consider painting the building in a complementary colour scheme to the garden. If you’ve gone for a really sleek modern look, minimalist colours like white, grey or black can provide a good combination.
  • Furnish the interior with modern pieces to blend the entire space together. No matter what you want to use it for, modern-looking furniture or fittings will help create a cohesive look.
  • Place the building itself on a complementary base. A timbered base is better suited for traditional-styled gardens, so consider using paving slabs or gravel instead.

What Features Do Our Modern Summer Houses Include?

We understand that finding a quality building that you can rely on is essential. Each modern summerhouse we provide comes with all of the following features, ensuring you get a building that makes your garden a better place to be.

  • On every building you’ll find large windows equipped with SAN glazing. Since these buildings are exposed to the brunt of the elements, we’ve learned from experience that glass is both more expensive and more dangerous to our customers. 
  • Each summerhouse is designed, manufactured and delivered ourselves. This allows us to produce quality buildings without the inflated costs of a middleman.
  • Every building is constructed with interlocking tongue and groove cladding. Here, panels lock into each other with a tongue and corresponding groove, which creates a smooth exterior, a tight seal that prevents moisture ingress, and additional structural support.
  • Every building is equipped with a 10-year guarantee which protects the building against rot, decay, and insect infestation - the main causes of timber damage.
  • All our modern summerhouses are constructed with wide double doors. When opened the doors allow fresh air to circulate throughout the building for better ventilation and cooling - breaking down the barrier between your garden and the garden room.
  • Each model has the added option of being pressure-treated. This process sees chemical preservatives injected into the makeup of the timber itself, which adds extra longevity to the wood. If you opt to have your building treated, we increase the warranty of your building up to 15 years.
