Anyone looking for a shed with firewood storage usually ends up with a patchwork: here the building, next to it a metal rack for the logs that rusts or warps after a few winters. This modern project shows the other way – building and firewood store conceived as one ensemble, planned through to the smallest detail, where everything fits together because it was designed together from the start. The result is not a shed plus an accessory, but a single, quiet piece of garden design that happens to keep the winter warm.
The firewood bay is not an afterthought bolted to the side; it is part of the design: the same façade, continuous design joints, a shared roof. The stacked logs themselves become a design element – their warm, lively structure plays against the calm HPL surface of the building. At the same time the wood is stored protected from the weather and ventilated, within easy reach on the way between house and terrace: no trudging across a wet lawn on a cold evening, just a few steps and an armful of dry logs.
Compared with firewood stores made of metal, the HPL construction shows its strengths over time. HPL (high-pressure laminate) by Trespa does not rust, does not warp and never needs painting. The material is UV-resistant, frost-proof and rainproof – calculated for a service life of around 50 years. And while metal bleaches in the sun or collects dents, the HPL façade keeps its precise, cubic appearance – with over 40 newtons of impact resistance, even when a log knocks against the wall during stacking.
Individual planning takes in every intended use: given sufficient size, bicycles, a scooter or the large barbecue find their place next to the garden tools. Inside, the building stays what it should be – organised, lockable storage; outside, one calm structure orders the garden instead of two competing objects. The clean-lined form takes up the geometry of a modern home and continues it into the green.
We plan the ensemble of building and firewood store freestanding or as an attached version – entirely according to the demands of your plot. The basis is the same made-to-measure approach as for every DESIGA garden shed: the firewood bay is matched in width, depth and height to your actual firewood consumption, so the stack fits the room and the room fits the stack. Whether you burn wood occasionally or heat with it through the season, the proportions follow your reality rather than a standard drawing.
“Many thanks for the perfect planning, handling and assembly of our new, beautiful design garden building with firewood store. Absolutely recommendable!” – Petra & Frank L. Feedback like this shows why detailed planning pays off: what stands in the garden at the end is not a compromise but an ensemble that gives pleasure every day – in summer as tidy storage, in winter as the shortest route to a burning stove.
Whether building and firewood bay stay tone on tone or set each other off deliberately: over 250 HPL colours and décors are available, and free colour samples are sent to your home in advance so you can judge the effect next to the logs and the greenery. Warm décors emphasise the natural side of the ensemble; cooler tones sharpen the contrast with the stacked wood.
Every ensemble is developed in-house and manufactured in Germany and delivered across Europe. On request our own assembly team puts building and firewood bay up on site – alternatively you assemble the ensemble yourself, guided by a detailed step-by-step assembly video.
