Garden Room & Garden Office Timber Cladding: Ideas, Inspiration & Options
Published on
Timber cladding offers a smart, modern and nature-inspired finish for garden rooms, helping them to slot seamlessly into their outdoor surroundings.
Gym? Office? Reading room? Home cinema? Or even a bar or ‘man cave’? Garden rooms have grown hugely in popularity as a way of unlocking space for your property.
As well as creating more possibilities for relaxation, a garden room can even add value to your home — but only if it looks the part. What species and colour should you choose? What profile? Horizontal or vertical?
To give you some ideas and inspiration for your next project, we’ve put together some stunning examples of garden rooms we’ve provided timber cladding for.

With beauty and durability in abundance, Western Red Cedar is one of the first species people mention when it comes to cladding.

Naturally resistant to moisture, insect damage and decay, Western Red Cedar boasts a stunning mix of reds, salmon pinks and browns. These contemporary tones are only enhanced with a translucent stain.

Grey is another on-trend cladding choice. It connects your space to nature, providing a minimalist, Scandinavian-inspired look.

The vertical cladding orientation, with a thinner board, is another popular way of capturing a Nordic style.

Black painted (or charred) cladding is another grayscale choice, adding a slightly more darker and dramatic look.

Thermally-modified woods — like Thermo-Ayous, Thermo-Nordic Pine, Thermo-Tulipwood and Thermo-Radiata Pine — offer exceptional outdoor performance with an alluring, tropical darker brown colour.
