More ways to
make room.

Every Cabineato starts as a shed-style build under 160 sq ft. Choose a home for growing, photography, recreation or poolside gear, then explore layouts for the moments you use it.

01 — GROWING GEAR

Rooms4Growth

Angled view of a sunny cedar shed with solar roof, wide open doors, potting area and microgreens racks on the far wall
Rooms4Growth / Potting & greens · AI concept render

A sun-facing opening, a potting area and growing racks across the far wall. The angled view reveals roof-mounted solar panels and a light-filled home for your growing gear.

02 — TOOLS & EQUIPMENT

Industrial Standard

Black-clad photo studio with white walls, exposed conduit and wall outlets, black high ceiling, skylights and rack storage
Industrial Standard / Photo Studio · AI concept render

Black exterior cladding, white interior walls and a high black ceiling with skylights. Visible conduit runs to wall-mounted outlets, keeping services accessible. The Photo Studio pairs a shooting area with organised rack storage. This more permanent build prioritises adaptable interiors and accessible services, rather than routine dismantling.

03 — GAMES, SPORT & FITNESS

Clubhouse

Winter garden gym with vaulted timber ceiling with skylights on both slopes, raised paired timber collar ties with black bolts and a skipping rope draped over the nearest tie, closed glass doors, road bike on indoor trainer, Pilates reformer, squat rack, red-light panel and wood-clad cold plunge; snow melts in loops on the concrete patio outside
Clubhouse / Fitness · AI concept render

Choose Fitness, Sport & Rec or The Games Room. The winter Fitness concept pairs a road bike on an indoor trainer with a Pilates reformer, squat rack, wall-mounted red-light panel and compact wood-clad cold plunge. Closed glass doors look onto a concrete patio with snow melting above buried heating loops. The Games Room takes a more enclosed approach to screens and entertainment.

04 — POOLSIDE & GATHERING

Cabana & poolhouse

Sunny cabana with clerestory roof and skylights, open dining area, connected rainwater downpipe and tank, and private cedar-screened shower
Cabana / Poolhouse & dining · AI concept render

A vaulted interior beneath a split-height roof with front-facing clerestory glazing and skylights. Open the doors for poolside dining, with towel and seasonal storage inside. Beside the cabana, a gutter-fed rainwater tank and a cedar-screened outdoor shower complete the concept. This is a more permanent, site-specific build rather than a take-apart model.

02 / Our approach

Built around
your kind of space.

Start with what you need to store and what you want to do. The layout, finishes and construction approach follow from there.

01

Give your gear a home.

Plan shelves, racks and clear floor space around the actual equipment.

02

Work with the site.

Access, the base, light and any services shape the design and installation.

03

Choose the right build.

Cabana and Industrial Standard favour more permanent construction. Simpler Clubhouse designs can explore cassette assembly when future relocation is part of the brief.

Clubhouse / The Games Room

A little less glass.
A lot more play.

A dedicated home for clubs, consoles and entertainment gear. Fewer windows and more solid wall space create a calmer backdrop for the screens.

Clubhouse / The Games Room · AI concept render

Golf. Gaming. Your kind of downtime.

The concept combines a golf simulator with a separate entertainment screen and media storage. Clubs and controllers have a place, with a flexible central floor area.

Golf is a layout concept: ceiling height, swing clearance, screen distance and the selected simulator’s requirements must be checked within the final under-160-sq-ft design.

A little room
to grow something.

Open the large doors towards the sun, with growing racks along the far wall and a potting bench to the side. Solar panels are visible across the roof; the power system would be sized to the chosen equipment and seasonal use.

A few things to know

Start with
good questions.

Our examples begin with storage, then show how space might be used occasionally. The equipment, intended activities and property guide the final layout.

Are these living spaces or additions?

This range is for standalone shed-style builds under 160 sq ft, centred on gear storage. It does not include additions, sleeping accommodation or independent homes.

How do the occasional-use layouts work?

Examples show the gear stored, then how a fold-down bench, movable rack or cleared floor area could support an occasional activity. They are layout ideas, not confirmation that every activity or installation is permitted on every property.

Is cassette construction available?

Ask about it for a simpler Clubhouse configuration. A design intended for dismantling and relocation needs its panel connections, finishes, services and handling planned from the outset. It is not standard across the range: the Cabana and Industrial Standard concepts favour more permanent construction. Any future move or resale for relocation would depend on the agreed build and both sites.

Does the size alone determine what is allowed?

We use under 160 sq ft as the product size limit, not a promise of permit exemption. Confirm the proposed structure, services and actual use with your municipality before proceeding.

Do I need a finished design before starting?

No. Begin with your location, gear list, a footprint under 160 sq ft and comfortable budget range. Tell us about any occasional activities too, so the actual intended use can be considered from the start.

Are the images completed Cabineato projects?

These are AI-generated concept renders, not completed Cabineato projects or measured plans. They illustrate finishes and layout options. Equipment sizes, working clearances, roof and power systems, and the final under-160-sq-ft footprint must be resolved for each design. Furniture, landscaping, pools and equipment shown are not a statement of what is included.
