5 benefits of a Garden Office
Working from home has become essential, yet distractions and lack of work-life separation can be tough. A garden home office provides a dedicated workspace within your own garden's comfort.
A garden office can support a healthy work-life balance
With 38 years of experience in designing, manufacturing, and installing garden buildings, we have created various types of garden offices for our clients - from bespoke offices to our pre-designed collection. This experience has helped us to identify what our clients love about their garden offices. Here is what we have learned from them:
Having a healthy work-life balance is vital for one's mental health and wellbeing. A garden office allows you to create your own work area that is separate from the demands of your home life. Our garden offices can easily be locked up ensuring that when you are not working, your children or pets cannot get into your office. Gone are the days when your little one used your work papers to draw little pictures or your cat knocked your proposal to the ground. With a garden office everyone is more likely to respect it as a place of work, which may not happen when you are working from the kitchen table.
If you work from home, there is no commuting time
This is a big one. With a garden office, you don't have to spend hours each day in traffic or waiting at the train station. This allows you to get more done during the workday, as well as save money on fuel and car maintenance costs. Also with the recent train strikes, having a garden office ensures that you can always get to the office on time with little worries. It also improves your quality of life by allowing more time with family members or even with friends who live close by but are always busy with their own responsibilities! Even better, not having a commute will give you more time to focus on yourself. Imagine having an extra hour a day to workout, meditate or spend time on your hobby.
A garden home office can improve your productivity
Having a dedicated workspace away from the distractions of home can help increase your focus and productivity. During design, we can tailor your building to your business and personal needs. This will help you to create a productive working area with the necessary electrics, internet and space for everything that you need. This personal connection with your work environment can help you to concentrate better and be more productive. Plus, you will be surprised by how having a dedicated work space will psychologically help you to enter a working mood.
A garden office offers you flexibility
A garden office allows you to have flexibility when the unexpected occurs. If your child is ill or you have other personal issues to deal with, you are able to catch up with work later in the day without worrying about the office being closed. Working from home gives you more opportunities to work when it suits you the best and having access to a fully insulated space makes life much easier. All of our buildings are insulated meaning that no matter the season or the weather, your garden office will be cosy and warm ready for you to get to work.
A garden office can help you save money in the long run
Renting a traditional office space can be expensive, and it can be time consuming to find something that suits your requirements in the correct location. Even working in a shared space adds up and does not always guarantee that you will find a quiet spot with everything that you need. A garden office can provide an affordable alternative while still offering all the benefits of a professional workspace.
Our Jay Offices start at £4788 plus VAT and include delivery and installation to our bronze standard. When you consider the amount you would pay for office rent, commuting and lunch over a few years, a garden office becomes more cost effective. As of writing this post, an annual season train ticket from Brighton to London starts at £4,480. With our complete garden office packages starting at £12,000, you could have this paid off in two years and save time by not commuting.
Additionally, adding a garden office to your property can increase its value, making it a worthwhile investment.
