The Herald Garden Studio has been designed by Parsonson Architects as a functional, freestanding structure that aims to provide additional living space for homeowners. The studio was designed for a New Zealand couple feeling cramped in their two-bedroom Victorian cottage looking for more space without having to leave their neighborhood. The tiny cabin is big on modern aesthetics, while also incorporating ample amenities into its 183-square-foot interior including a bathroom, storage space, play area, guest bed and more.
The Herald Garden Studio is constructed using wooden beams in a triangular arrangement to achieve a structure, which has then been clad in oriented strand board (OSB) along with corrugated Colorsteel to help it blend into the garden.
