Temporary Garden Centre Solution
Haskins Garden Centre in Snowhill required a high-quality temporary retail space to continue serving customers while their permanent facility underwent redevelopment. To ensure a seamless shopping experience, they turned to Spaciotempo for a state-of-the-art temporary store that would uphold the centre’s reputation for excellence.


Requirements
Haskins needed a temporary structure that could accommodate a full-scale retail space, including a plant area, garden furniture section, and a café. The solution had to offer a high level of comfort, insulation, and durability while maintaining an inviting atmosphere for customers.
The solution
Spaciotempo designed and installed a 1,575 sqm temporary building, ensuring that Haskins could continue serving customers without interruption. The structure comprises three gutter-linked units forming the main retail space, which includes a plant area, garden sundry products, furniture, clothing, and gifts. Additionally, the facility features a welcoming 180-seat café where visitors can relax and enjoy refreshments.

Thoughtful Design and Comfort Features

To enhance the shopping experience, Spaciotempo incorporated a thermo-insulated roof and gables for energy efficiency and climate control. The plant area, housed in two adjoining units, features perforated walls and a specially designed roof to allow natural light and airflow. The structure also includes three single doors, eight double-glazed windows, and a full heating system to ensure year-round comfort.

Seamless Transition During Redevelopment

The temporary store will remain in place for approximately a year while Haskins’ permanent garden centre is rebuilt. This solution enables uninterrupted business operations, ensuring continued revenue and customer satisfaction. The high-quality finish of the building has even led many visitors to mistake it for a permanent structure.
“We all absolutely love the building. The quality of the finish is so good that a lot of people have asked if it is the new permanent garden centre!”
“The temporary store is the perfect solution for us, and we are really impressed with it. We did an awful lot of homework on various suppliers before we decided to work with Spaciotempo, and our dedication definitely paid off.”
