If you are thinking of making a small garden house, maybe this can give you some inspiration. I started out looking at houses that could be bought, but I never found anything I liked or that was "solid" enough. So I decided to make my own design and went for a combination of bricks for foundation and the top level of the house made of wood.
I then used litex plates to "mimick" wood at the top, and plastering the whole building to create a solid and unified finish

Sliding doors makes it possible to open up the whole building...great at night and
when the summer rain is puring down! |
