What are the materials used in construction? The studio has a cross-braced timber frame with painted fibre cement cladding, cut to mimic shingles and profiled to form a zig-zag pattern. There is plywood sheeting lining the interior walls and a concrete slab with custom-designed glass mosaic tiles on the floor. The windows benefit from shutters,

You can also use screens to add shape and interest to a building. Consider adding a curved, arched or angular screen to your home’s facade to boost its visual impact from the street. And don’t forget that a screen can be a useful tool indoors too; use an open bookcase as a room divider or specify a 45-degree angle slatted screen that blocks views from one side while being open on the other. The options are endless.

There is an LED strip light feature in the shower recess that gives a luxury feel to the bathroom, but didn’t cost very much. It is on a separate switch so it can be turned on independently from the rest of the lighting – very practical for nighttime toilet trips when you don’t want to turn on overhead lighting.

1. Stairs & storage on one side of the wall. 2. When shutters are built specifically for your windows, you will have lots of choices regarding how they are designed. For a window such as this, the two panels could open from the centre or bi-fold to one side. If you don’t plan to open the panels back against the wall, having them open from the centre is fine. But if you plan to throw open the panels and there is something in the way on one side (like the pipe running up the left side of this window) then bi-fold is the way to go.

The space between my studio and the fences next to the Neighbour's: Install lights so my windows (if I'm having them facing that way) don't look so dead in the evening. Maybe even install bug repellent lights there too

Add windows (any size that can fit according to the wall size) to bring the light in.

Q

If the main house 's gas heating pipes need access and space, then build the studio around them. Add pots to grow greens for the caved area.

Can we have a sloped roof for extra height/or potential for small second storey built? With extra sunlight & windows?
