Saxlingham Home Office
Client Brief
Our customer runs their own business and decided they wanted to be able to work from home rather than paying for an expensive commercial office premises in Norwich.
A professional ecologist, the brief included creating a chalk landscape around the Garden Room, which we achieved by using reclaimed railway sleepers to create steps and a retaining wall, infilling them with locally sourced lump chalk.
