It’s time to get cosy in your annexe this autumn. Summer is long gone, so get ready to embrace the magic of autumn!
As Halloween, Bonfire Night and Harvest Festival approach, it’s a great time to transform your annexe into a cosy and inviting space throughout the upcoming months.
Allow the beautiful vibrant hues of autumn inspire you…
There are many simple yet effective ideas that can come in handy as the days grow shorter and colder. Allow the beautiful vibrant hues of autumn to inspire you! Have fun transforming your granny annexe or garden room into a cosy extension of your outdoor space.
By simply adding a few new cushions in warm autumn colors, thick curtains, or a vibrant orange rug you can easily completely revamp a room and create a cozy atmosphere.
Bring the outdoors in…
Embrace the beauty of succulents and leafy greens that thrive indoors all year round.
Not only will your annexe/garden room look amazing, there are a whole array of benefits to having houseplants.
The most obvious being that ‘feel-good’ feeling they bring. As the days shorten, we spend more time indoors – so why not make that indoor time more pleasurable!
There have also been studies carried out that suggest that houseplants may reduce stress and anxiety, and improve air quality. Combined with the claims that plants can make you more productive, sharpen your attention and help patients heal faster…what’s not to love about bringing the outdoors in!
The scent of the season
Let’s not forget all the wonderful scents of the season. Autumn is characterized by its own unique and intriguing flavors and scents. The smoke of a cozy fire, woodland walks through the trees, mosses and grasses. Add to the mix the aromas of the foods and ‘spices’ of the season and feelings of comfort and nostalga are unleashed.
Whether you are mixing up a delightful cinnamon-orange pot pourri that will add that extra touch of warmth and comfort, or opting for a fragrant candle, plug-in, or diffuser, the aroma will most certainly add an extra autumnal dimension to your annexe. Heat up a mug of mulled wine or hot chocolate and put your feet up and enjoy that feeling of getting cosy in your annexe!
Cosy on up!
Throws and blankets are perfect for snuggling up in, to stay warm and cosy, but you should have peace of mind knowing that all Swift annexes and garden rooms are incredibly sound and well insulated for the colder months. Our buildings are constructed entirely from SIP panels.
SIP panels, when cut to size, properly jointed and expertly installed, create one of the most highly efficient and robust structures presently available. They exceed all current building regulations for heat insulation and air-tightness. You will also have the option of adding either under floor heating, electric radiators or air conditioning for heating your garden room.
