Oak Frame Extensions for Outdoor Living
Oak frame extensions provide an elegant way to expand outdoor living without altering the main structure of the home. Often used to create covered dining areas, outdoor lounges or sheltered entertaining spaces, they offer a sense of enclosure while maintaining a strong connection to the garden.
By extending living space outward, oak frame extensions allow outdoor areas to be used more comfortably and more often. The structure defines the space architecturally, creating a clear transition between indoor and outdoor living.
Each extension is designed to reflect the character of the property, ensuring it feels considered, balanced and well integrated.

OAK FRAMED BUILDINGS Designed to Work with Outdoor Kitchens
An oak framed building creates an exceptional setting for an outdoor kitchen, bringing warmth, structure and a sense of permanence to the space. The strength and character of oak provide a natural architectural framework, allowing cooking, dining and entertaining areas to feel defined, sheltered and purposefully designed.
When combined with an outdoor kitchen, an oak framed structure enhances usability throughout the year, offering protection from the elements while maintaining an open connection to the garden. Thoughtful design ensures the layout supports relaxed hosting, with space for cooking, preparation and seating to flow comfortably beneath the structure.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We purchased our home in a small Norfolk village ‘off-plan’ but felt we needed another room to meet our needs which was added before we moved in. We had created a large and slightly awkward outside space between the 2 rooms which we wanted to try and use efficiently year round. The newly created space was south facing - in the summer we couldn’t sit outside due to the sun beating down and in the winter it was a wind trap. Following a long exploration of options, we decided we wanted to find a solution to fill the ‘empty’ 100 sq.ft by creating an entirely new fully enclosed room. We wanted the new room to have a louvered ‘roof’ to protect us from the sun and the front garden facing structure to also be able to protect us from the sun as it sets. We spent much time trying to design something ourselves and find a solution. To no avail. We were therefore delighted to discover LOD - via a Facebook feed - located only a few miles from our home. The bespoke quality and functionality of their product was far superior to anything we had researched. We were even more pleased when we found the company to be friendly and professional and more than capable of translating our scribbles and requirements into workable solutions with an extensive and easy to understand rosta of options. Having run through a whole gamut of requirements and different potential approaches, we were delighted that Kurt and the team could translate our ideas into practical solutions, helped substantially by the generous size of their office and workshop which included a finished layout so we could see the quality of the structure and all ‘extras’ that we sought. We very quickly decided that this was the way forward and within a few short months of our first meeting the work was completed. We are writing this from our heated completed garden room, wind and rain is outside the structure but we are happily dry, warm and cosy. When Summer arrives we now have the choice of opening the roof system a little or a lot as well as opening the sliding shutters to the garden. We have no hesitation in recommending the team and products from Luxury Outdoor Design Ltd who can design, create and install a bespoke outdoor solution.Posted on alison wilsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. First Class Service and a First Class Product. Our Renson Pergola is beautifully made and the colour options ensured that it matched perfectly with the existing doors and windows in our home. Unlike the vast majority of products on the market the options available in the Renson range meant that we could select a pergola that matched entirely our requirements and is exclusive to our property. The team at Luxury Outdoor Design worked closely with us through every stage of the design and installation process and a constant supply of tea, coffee and Jaffa Cakes ensured that the installation went smoothly and on schedule despite the challenging weather conditions. We have no hesitation in recommending both Luxury outdoor Design and their range of Renson products.Posted on Lionel DaviesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are so, so pleased with the latest addition to our home… our Renson Pergola garden room, provided and installed by Luxury Outdoor Design of Attleborough. The contemporary design has blended in so well and is an amazing contrast to our 18th century Grade II listed home. It definitely has a wow factor! From start to finish, the landscaping and build was so professional, and all completed within the expected timescale that was discussed at the start of this project. Would we recommend Luxury Outdoor Design? …. most certainly! Thank you to Kurt and his team for a great service! And thank you too to The Norfolk Olive Tree Company for our amazing cloud olive tree which just works so well with the overall design. Also thanks to Maze garden furniture for the table and chairs, and sofas. Our garden just looks so smart now !Posted on Graeme HowlettTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wow - the whole experience with the team at outdoor luxury kitchens has been exceptional. We have been talking to Kurt for possibly two years trying to decide what we wanted and at no time has he ever pressured us or pushed he’s always listened and said go away and think and let me know. But we finally Got there with the most amazing outdoor kitchen which has been my husbands dream For a long time. The team have worked tirelessly to get it up and running in time for a birthday event, and have been an absolute joy to have around the house. It was also done in ridiculously hot weather and with not one complaint. The oven itself is incredible it looks brilliant and our first pizzas this weekend were epic. But the service Provided was more than the above, several things happened on our property during the time Kurt and the team were around or working nearby and every single time with any thing big or small they helped out, from moving things to fixing burst pipes to making sure I could lift items into a skip - they truly went above and beyond and no amount of words can thank them for that. We love our kitchen and it’s going to be put to great use this summer! Thanks Kurt.Posted on Emma DaviesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Oak Framed Buildings as Part of a Wider Outdoor Scheme
Oak framed buildings often form part of a larger outdoor living environment. They can be designed alongside pergolas, outdoor kitchens, landscaped seating areas or dining spaces to create a cohesive and well-considered layout.
Oak Frame Garden Rooms
Oak framed garden rooms create calm, characterful spaces designed for year-round use. Whether used for relaxation, entertaining or quiet retreat, the warmth and permanence of oak provides an inviting environment that feels naturally connected to the garden.
Each garden room is bespoke, carefully proportioned and designed to sit comfortably within its setting, providing a natural extension of the home designed to be permanent and enduring.
Outdoor Dining Areas
Oak framed dining structures define outdoor eating spaces with shelter and architectural presence. Whether used for informal family meals or larger gatherings, they create a comfortable setting that encourages outdoor dining in a wider range of conditions.
The structure brings balance and enclosure while maintaining an open connection to the surrounding garden.
Oak framed buildings can be designed as covered entertaining areas that bring structure and focus to outdoor living. Often paired with outdoor kitchens or seating zones, they create inviting spaces for hosting while remaining open to the garden.
Our expert design ensures these areas feel purposeful, balanced and seamlessly integrated within a wider outdoor scheme.
Designed and Crafted Oak frames built to Last
Oak has been used in building for centuries due to its strength, durability and ability to age beautifully over time. Our oak framed buildings are crafted using traditional oak framing techniques, creating structures that are robust, expressive and built for the long term.
As oak matures, it develops a distinctive character that enhances the building rather than detracting from it. This natural ageing process is part of the appeal, reinforcing the sense of permanence and authenticity that oak frame buildings provide.
Every structure is designed with longevity in mind, ensuring it continues to perform and age gracefully within its environment.
