One of the most common questions we receive is undoubtedly "How do you arrange furniture in a round room?"
This is of course one of the most challenging and interesting parts of designing exclusively in the round and we've spent the best part of half a decade passionately working on the sub-division of circular lodges to create ergonomically workable spaces which are not only infinitely more attractive than box-like rooms but work to maximise efficiency and aesthetics.
Creating rooms within a roundhouse is just as simple as adding a wall, either a flat wall which comes out perpendicular from the outer radius, or as a curved stud-wall which runs parallel to the external wall. Either way, it's all possible, if you have the know-how!Above is an example of how one might utilise a single 6.5m external diameter Rotunda as a holiday lodge or luxury rural hotel suite.
Of course, if you're looking to provide your guests (or additional space for yourself for that matter!) with a little extra space, combining two (or more) units together presents the perfect opportunity of a multi-purpose lodge which may contain a seperate kitchen and living space.
Combining units together can start to work against budget and/or energy restrictions so a simpler way of increasing capacity would be to extend the walls out and enlarging the outer radius to create 'wings' which can be sub-divided into bedroom and bathroom spaces.
But of course, a blend of the two concepts works to create a holiday lodge like no other – adjoining 'pods' and extended bathroom 'wings' creates a super-lodge with the irrefutable magic of a Rotunda but the functionality of a family sized log cabin.
These are just a few of our designs which have accumulated over the years, we're regularly updating our clients with new designs and offer a free initial concept design service to all of our enquirers who are genuinely looking for a unique holiday lodge or self-contained annexe.

Are you looking for how to create the perfect teen girl bedroom? This must-have checklist includes cute decorating ideas for her. I had so much fun working with my middle daughter, who is almost 15, to create this bedroom. I had recently done another makeover found here, with my oldest daughter for her room. So, having three teen daughters gives me the experience to so confidently say that these are the must-haves, haha! They are the pieces that all three of them are looking to have in their bedrooms. Come check it out!

When my daughter was designing her room, she wanted to have a less cluttered feel and more space to move around within her room. She found this fantastic tufted, full-size daybed that she fell in love with from Joss & Main. I will have to say I was a bit hesitant to move forward with a daybed at first, but we could not be happier with how much bigger her room feels. It's so much more open! And, this daybed is well made and sturdy. It was an excellent choice for her room. Her friends have already come over and enjoyed hanging out on her daybed and the rug.
Think in terms of mixing and matching colors, textures, and patterns. Teen girl room decor is not "matchy" anymore. For example, we found this soft, neutral quilt then added a chunky blanket, and added in lots of various throw pillows to get that look every girl wants. Bonus? Have faux fur in both the pillows and rug. This faux fur "rug" is actually just an oversized throw! You can find a faux fur rug here and a shag rug (which is another good option) here.
Hanging chairs are something every teen girl wants, but we knew that we couldn't choose one that would take up too much space. This Joss & Main chair hammock was the right size, and it is so fun to have in her room. Of course, my son wants one now too in his room, lol! I also love the texture this chair hammock adds next to the bed.
As far as the wall decor, string lights are so fun and whimsical for their rooms! All of my teenage daughters have lights like these in their rooms, often using them as their main source of lighting. And, just like back in my teenage days (ha-ha), posters are back! We found some really cute ones that coordinated well together. I share links to the ones here in her room at the end of this post. We are still adding a photo wall to the other side of her room (think in terms of printing out at least 50-75 of their favorite photos and using paint friendly adhesive to stick them to the wall).
The final touches are full-length mirrors and plants! If you feel like your teen is ready for a real plant, then go for it! I opted for faux plants when placing them in my girl's bedrooms. They are really cute on shelves, side tables, and desks. They also look cute on the floor, like this larger plant here.
I hope you found this must-have checklist for a teen girl bedroom helpful! It doesn't have to be complicated. In fact, the simpler the better! (For instance, if you noticed, she does not have curtains on her windows.) This trendy teenage girl's bedroom checklist will have her room up to par with her age.
