A large contemporary Shomera 23 garden studio at dusk

Shomera 23

Contemporary Range · 3.6m x 6.0m · From €46,450

Shomera 23 measures approximately 3.6m x 6.0m. The balance of glazing, covered outdoor area and large internal space expands the living space for you and your family.

Made for family living, indoors and out

The largest Contemporary model balances generous glazing, a covered outdoor area and a big internal room, so the living space of the house extends into the garden.

  1. Family living room

    A second living space for the whole family, with the glazing opening the room to the garden and the covered area outside for sitting out.

  2. Entertaining space

    Room to host: a large open interior for gatherings and a sheltered outdoor area that keeps the party going when the weather turns.

  3. Office and family room

    A large room with the space to hold a proper home office at one end and family living at the other, without either feeling squeezed.

Product Specs

In-situ poured concrete pads with galvanised steel beams - structural support and a damp-proof medium in one detail.

A certified, kiln-dried timber frame built up in ten layers.

A fibreglass roof - the same material we use on Shomera house extensions.

Double-glazed uPVC windows and doors with 90mm frames to passive house standard - argon-filled units, with tempered glass where required.

Rigid EPS insulation to ceilings and floors. Walls combine a non-slumping quilt with a continuous rigid layer on the inside skin, protected by visqueen and cloth tape, and fitted in factory-controlled conditions - so the studio heats quickly and holds its temperature once warm.

Cladding detailed for Irish conditions, fixed with concealed stainless fixings, with a maintenance-free detail where a unit sits against a boundary.

Each model is available in a left or right orientation, to suit where it sits in your garden.

High-quality laminate flooring with commercial-grade wear resistance and an oak grain, in grey, light oak or dark oak.

Three finishes for the recessed area: signal black (RAL 9004), stone grey (RAL 7030) and a natural stained larch effect.
