A cosy office with a cork pinboard wall

This 10m² garden office in Leytonstone sits quietly in the planting, clad in dark charred larch, and needed no planning application. A large sliding door opens it to the garden, and the desk faces a picture window with green views.

Inside, light birch plywood is paired with cork: a pinboard wall for ideas and plans, a cork floor that's warm underfoot, and a pegboard for tools. Everything has a place, so the room is calm enough to focus in and flexible enough for family time.
