Flower preservation workshop and office

Sals Forever Flowers outgrew their current working space and needed to expand while still working from home.

The Butterley Park Nursery was purpose built in 2000, catering for children from birth to 5. The site has extensive secure grounds, including a large lawned play area, sensory and growing garden, and enclosed woods, which the children love to explore and where they attend Forest School sessions.

"They were very professional but very approachable which was nice"

The design works around the space as well as the business requirements...

This multi award winning flower preservation business is keeping Sal and her team busy and working from her converted garage and home was no longer an option. Having to meet clients in her house as the garage was the working space was in no way ideal.

Since the garden was small, the position was clear where this working space had to go. Therefore the design had to be worked around the space as well as the business requirements. Cosy Garden Rooms worked with Sal remotely for much of the process, asking all the right questions regarding the design features. This led to the initial design being the actual design to be built, right the first time. Due to the way Cosy Garden Rooms favour horizontal cladding (which is how the composite boarding should be used) it was possible for the building to be clad in 2 colours which closely matched the business logo.
