The Woodcab, or the ideal alternative to extensions
We often look to expand our living space by adding an extension to our house. However, this can be expensive and require planning permission. An often overlooked alternative, but one that can offer many advantages, is adding a garden annex.
Garden annexes are freestanding structures that can often be installed without planning permission. This approach offers numerous advantages for both clients and architects:
Flexibility of use
First, a garden annex can offer a flexibility that a house extension doesn’t. They can cater to specific needs such as a home office, an artist’s studio, a gym, or even a guest room. These structures can be easily customized to meet clients’ needs and desires, adding considerable value to the property.
A thoughtful choice of sustainable and environmentally friendly materials
Woodcabs are built with 95% EPFC European wood in a circular logic with mechanical assemblies that offer easy dismantling and replacement of parts.
A real economy
The construction and labor costs of a workshop production are under control and lower than those of a classic house extension construction site (particularly because of bad weather, travel and unknowns of the site).
