“Not Just a Shed, Sharon.”

Why Your Garden Flat Deserves Better (and How to Build One That’s a Total Power Move)

Let’s be honest. Most garden flats are… sad. Half shed, half panic solution, usually built in a rush and regretted forever…

Not ours.

At Saxon Architects, we’re currently working on one that feels like a tiny sanctuary — not because it’s big, but because it’s brilliant.

We don’t just build extra space.
We build strategic, soulful, high-functioning pods of joy. Here’s how we do it (and how you should too):

- Think like a developer, feel like a designer.
We blend logic, lifestyle, and resale potential without ever compromising on beauty.

- Build with identity.
Why copy your main house when this could be your alter ego? Minimalist zen hut? Boho Airbnb star? Future you wants options.

- Start with feeling.
How do you want this space to feel on a rainy Tuesday morning? On a golden Sunday afternoon? That’s where good design begins.

- Plan smart. Plan free.
We’ll help you dodge red tape when possible, and dance through it when not.

- Make the outdoors count.
Designing the annex is only half the job — the other half is flow, planting, privacy, and a space you actually want to sit in barefoot.

The annex we’re doing now?
It’s going to change someone’s entire rhythm of life. Because when done right, a garden flat isn’t “extra.”
It’s evolution.
