Summary

Discover creative interiors and the gardens that surround them. Nestled at the bottom of the garden is a room that offers endless possibilities. A garden room is a space where the boundaries between inside and out begin to blur, where humble sheds and forgotten outbuildings are transformed into places of creativity, contemplation and retreat. Visiting a community garden in Stockholm, photographer Hannah Puechmarin came upon a village of small gabled cottages and vegetable plots, known in Sweden as kolonilotts. These modest but essential retreats offer space to rest, grow food and gather. The Garden Room is an ode to Australian garden dwellings - where the old is reimagined into the new: a shed becomes a florist's workshop, shearing quarters turned into a scent studio and a guesthouse sits quietly on a rose farm. Each space tells a story of renewal, outbuildings given new life with salvaged materials and always with a glorious view of the garden. Ensconced in greenery and offering refuge from the outside world, these rooms are a gentle escape from the pace of everyday life.
