But, with a two-storey extension you get double the amount of space, which makes the cost per square metre lower in comparison. So, it\u2019s a no-brainer really.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"766\" height=\"603\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/blog\/assets\/2020\/07\/reinventing-1.jpg\" alt=\"Two storey house extension with wood panel facade\" class=\"wp-image-32828\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2020\/07\/15130439\/reinventing-1.jpg 766w, https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2020\/07\/15130439\/reinventing-1-422x332.jpg 422w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 766px) 100vw, 766px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>With twice the amount of space on offer, you can create a combination of the different types of rooms that work best for you. For example, having your office on the lower storey will mean that it overlooks your garden, so you\u2019ll get lots of natural light and quick access to the outside for a quick walk on your break. Plus, if you like to work outside on sunny days, you\u2019ll be able to get to your plug sockets and equipment easily. On the upper storey, you could create a bathroom. It\u2019ll be easy to access when you\u2019re working below in the office, help you to separate home and work life as you won\u2019t have to go into the main section of the house as regularly and ease the morning bathroom traffic if you live with others!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a look at our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/blog\/your-guide-to-designing-a-second-bathroom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"second bathroom design ideas and advice (opens in a new tab)\">second bathroom design ideas and advice<\/a> if you&#8217;re considering having another bathroom built. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>A garden office extension for nature lovers<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"766\" height=\"511\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/blog\/assets\/2020\/07\/reinventing-2.jpg\" alt=\"Office garden extension looking out into a woodland\" class=\"wp-image-32827\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2020\/07\/15130435\/reinventing-2.jpg 766w, https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2020\/07\/15130435\/reinventing-2-498x332.jpg 498w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 766px) 100vw, 766px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If your extension reaches into your garden, it doesn\u2019t mean that you have to lose out on green space. Floor to ceiling windows and doors in a rear house extension will let you experience nature throughout your working day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the outdoorsy people out there, the fresh air and green surroundings of a garden office will make you feel like you\u2019re immersed in nature, despite being sat at a desk.

You can split your office into different zones to suit everyone\u2019s needs: it could be an office area by day, and a living space ideal for chilling out in during the evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A bookcase or shelving unit is a cost-effective way to break up the different areas in an extension \u2013 plus, they\u2019re easy to move around if you want to change the way your extension\u2019s set up. If you\u2019re looking for a more permanent fixture, a partition wall will provide much more privacy between the different areas in your extension. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/local-handyman\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"A handyman (opens in a new tab)\">A handyman<\/a> can put together flat-pack furniture for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more d\u00e9cor ideas, check out our tips for <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/blog\/designing-your-home-office\" target=\"_blank\">designing your home office<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Home gym ideas<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re one of the millions of people who enjoy working out, but find it challenging to get to and from the gym most days, a home gym will help you keep up your fitness regime from the comfort of your own home. They offer a comfortable and private environment, are often cheaper than a gym membership in the long-term and will help you to fit your workout sessions around your schedule \u2013 much better than skipping regular workouts or rushing to the gym after a late finish at work. Here are some of the best home gym house extension ideas that will inspire you to get moving without breaking the bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>The family workout room<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve ever tried to work out with children in the house, you\u2019ll know it\u2019s not easy. A great solution is to create an environment where all of the family can exercise together or separately. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"766\" height=\"511\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/blog\/assets\/2020\/07\/reinventing-5.jpg\" alt=\"Mother and daughter sitting on mat and stretching \" class=\"wp-image-32824\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2020\/07\/15130424\/reinventing-5.jpg 766w, https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2020\/07\/15130424\/reinventing-5-498x332.jpg 498w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 766px) 100vw, 766px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>There are plenty of ways to make a family workout room engaging and exciting for your kids. Mirrored walls will help them to perfect their dance and gymnastics routines, whilst allowing you to improve your posture and technique as you exercise. Plus, mirrors reflect light across the room and make it look bigger and more open. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If neutral flooring is a bit too dull for your tastes, you can get all sorts of brightly coloured, cushioned flooring to give you a boost. As well as being shock absorbent and helping to prevent injuries from slips and trips, rubber or foam flooring can support your joints during high impact activities. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/local-floor-fitters\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"A floor fitter (opens in a new tab)\">A floor fitter<\/a> can advise you on the best option for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-very-light-gray-background-color has-background\"><strong><em>Top tip<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 consider soundproofing so you can work out without disturbing someone in another part of the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Find out how you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/blog\/lighting-and-sculptural-techniques-to-expand-your-living-space\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">use light and mirrors to create space<\/a> in your workout room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>A wellness studio<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"766\" height=\"469\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/blog\/assets\/2020\/07\/reinventing-7.jpg\" alt=\"Smiling woman lifting weights \" class=\"wp-image-32822\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2020\/07\/15130419\/reinventing-7.jpg 766w, https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2020\/07\/15130419\/reinventing-7-542x332.jpg 542w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 766px) 100vw, 766px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For those who like their workouts to be a relaxing and stress-reducing experience, a home wellness studio is the perfect space to practice things like yoga, Pilates and barre. By creating a peaceful space without distractions in the comfort of your own home, you can nourish your mind, body and soul. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding plants to your space is a budget-friendly way to make your space look more relaxing.

Lighting, wall colours and flooring types are all features that you can adapt to create a contemporary workout space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some people find having bright lighting and bold wall colours to be game changers when it comes to working out, whereas others are jumping on the new trend of using dim lighting in different colours to reduce anxiety and increase focus by helping them to be less self-conscious. Depending on what motivates you, you can customise your lighting set up easily. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/local-electricians\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"An electrician (opens in a new tab)\">An electrician<\/a> can help you to find the best set up for your space and needs.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you like to reward yourself after working out, you could even add a home drinks bar in the corner of your gym.
