We're big fans of minimalism here at SunSpaces; the less-is-more look really appeals to us, and we think that our sleek garden rooms are perfect for such designs.
Minimalism - by its very nature - doesn't require all that much in the way of accessorising, but if you are thinking of trying a minimal design in your own garden room, here are 5 items that we think will suit your needs perfectly:
Chrome Floor Lamp with Black Shade
This striking black floor lamp is perfect for a minimal design scheme, and it's bound to look brilliant in your SunSpaces garden room.
If, on the other hand, you'd prefer a lamp that's small enough to put on a table, then this bold little number will do the trick rather nicely!
Marimekko Unikko Pillowcase
This pillowcase pattern has a beautiful, almost Japanese appearance - use it on the cushions in your minimal sunroom design for comfortable, stylish results!
Mike White Coffee Table
Straight lines are a staple of any minimal design, and this pretty white coffee table uses straight lines to create a very arresting piece of furniture. It would also make the perfect home for your flower pot table lamp (see above!)
Nordic Cariboo Rug
Finally, this simple black rug will add the perfect finish to your minimal garden room and provide a bit of extra comfort underfoot.

The garden is a colourful place, and we think that our
garden rooms should be just the same! Here are some fabulous accessories from around the web that we think would look absolutely amazing inside our SunSpaces:
While we usually tend towards contemporary designs here at SunSpaces, we do love the occasional vintage find. This lovely mint-coloured tripod lamp has a certain old-fashioned beauty, but we think that the colour and the design would look right at home in a modern living space, too!
Personalised Planter Crates
Flowers are an obvious means of adding colour to your garden room, but why not go one step further and plant your seeds in a container that's every bit as colourful as the flowers themselves? These beautiful crates are available in a variety of different colours, and you can personalise them with any message you want!
A great way to make your garden room look brighter, livelier, and even more modern! We are a big fan of Mackenzie Thorpe's work, but don't worry if the painting above isn't to your tastes - there's a whole world of wonderful artwork to choose from, and thousands of different canvases that would look great in our garden rooms!
Pixel Rug
Sticking with the contemporary theme...feast your eyes on this magnificent rug! It's the perfect piece of home decor for gamers, geeks, and 21st century homeowners of all stripes. If added colour is what you're after, you can't go far wrong with this bright little number!
Patterned Floor Cushions
Finally, we come to these beautiful cushions - we think that their floral patterns would suit the outdoorsy feel of a garden room perfectly. Bonus points if you get one with pom-poms around the edge!
Once you've installed your new
garden room, the next thing to do is decorate it! Here are 5 of our favourite accessories from around the web - any of these would look fabulous in a SunSpaces structure:
from Cathy Frith
This big, round wall clock has a wonderfully weathered look that we simply adore!

If you're thinking of putting a bit of artwork in your garden room, these shabby chic frames are the perfect presentation items.
from TheTinyBirdTextiles
Cute cartoon-style cushions with an outdoorsy theme - what could be more perfect for a garden room?
from NuCasa
These wooden crates can be used to store practically anything you'd care to name, and the blackboard panel on the front of each one allows you to personalise your crates in any way you see fit.
from Notonthehighstreet
Finally, we have this quirky little number. The marble penguin is perfect for adding a little offbeat elegance to your not-quite-outdoor space.

Once you've installed your
garden room, you may well wonder how to fill it. Here are some suggestions that will help you to get the most from your garden room:
Lounge Furniture
Placing a couple of armchairs and a coffee table in your garden room is an easy way to make the space work for you. This will give you the perfect place to enjoy a spot of afternoon tea, or to curl up with a good book after a tiring day at work.
Dining Furniture
Similarly, a dining table and some chairs are all it takes to transform your new garden room into a classy, elegant dining area. Dining with friends is all the more enjoyable when you're sat in a splendid SunSpace!
Hot Tub
Want to do something a little different with your SunSpace? Then why not use it to house your very own hot tub? This will allow you to take a dip in those warm, bubbly waters whenever you like, without worrying about what the weather's doing!
