What’s at the end of your garden path? As the summers get longer and hotter, our al fresco ambitions are also rising. That’s why some gardeners are finding that simple sheds are no longer cutting it. Instead, an architect-designed pavilion can become a personal sanctuary, designed for hobbies and activities well beyond tending to your plants. Here, we’ve gathered some garden pavilion inspiration, crafted by designers and architects, to expand your outdoor space.
Built for an art collector and DJ, Exeter Road Pavilion (pictured above) is a storage unit for records, books, and art attached to the extension of a Victorian house in north London. The client also wanted to use it as a covered space to host get-togethers. Crafted from steel by architecture practice Neiheiser Argyros, the pavilion has floor-to-ceiling cabinets and wood-lined niches for display. neiheiserargyros.com
Designed as a garden sanctuary for a previous RHS Chelsea Flower Show by Koto and Tony Woods of Garden Club London, this cabin is one for nature enthusiasts, with its tranquil water surroundings and emphasis on sustainability. The carbon-neutral structure, which was decorated inside with a St Leo-plaster finish and furniture from Menu, inspired the ‘Niwa’ series of flat-pack modular cabins by Koto. The dark exterior is made using charred Iro-timber decking boards. koto.co.uk; gardenclublondon.co.uk
