Features You’ll Find in Every Classic Studio
Built to endure the elements, each Stilla Shed and Studio is lockable, weatherproof, and engineered for stability, even on uneven ground with the added option of a subfloor.
Weatherproof Roof
A proprietary roof design with custom flashing keeps every seam sealed and watertight, so your shed stays dry, season after season.
Built for Any Surface
Install directly on a slab or raised on posts, perfect for uneven ground. The optional subfloor includes heavy-duty treated pine joists and a solid timber base for strength and stability.
Double Door Access
Wide-opening double doors available on most models for easy entry and improved airflow throughout your space.
Secure by Design
Fully lockable doors and windows with premium hardware ensure your space, and everything in it, stays safe and protected.
Spacious Headroom
Generous ceiling height gives you room to move comfortably. No bumping your head, just open space that feels bigger and brighter than most.
The Subfloor Kit provides for installation without the need for a prepared base such as a concrete slab or paved area and is elevated off the ground.
Available to buy with or without a subfloor, giving you flexibility in how your studio is built.
Adding extra windows to your Stilla creates more natural light, better airflow, and a brighter, more inviting space.
Add roof insulation to improve energy efficiency, maintain comfortable temperatures, and reduce noise.

Frequently Asked Questions
If you let your cedar shed weather naturally it will fade to a silvery grey colour which looks great in some surroundings, and if left uncoated it will not affect the longevity of your garden shed. If you would like to keep the cedar looking fresh and new, we would recommend staining your cedar shed with Intergrain Ultra Deck in the Light Oak colour – this will make the cedar go slightly darker. There are other options including oils which look great however they are not as durable as the Ultra-Deck and will need to be applied more often.
If you are going to paint your cedar shed a colour to match your house you need to make sure that you undercoat it with an oil based primer before using any external paint to get your cedar shed to the colour you want.
Yes. Real estate agents often recommend cedar studios and sheds to sellers because the added value typically outweighs the investment.
No problem. The heavy-duty floor kit includes treated pine posts (750 mm) that can be adjusted to create a level base. For sites with significant slope, Stilla can provide longer posts or alternative solutions.
It’s not essential, but highly recommended. Without a coating, cedar naturally weathers to a silver-grey finish without losing strength or durability.
For painting: apply an oil-based primer before your chosen exterior paint.
For staining: Stilla recommends in Light Oak for best results.
Every state sets its own size limit for building without council approval, so it depends on where you're located. Find out more here.
If you're over the threshold, you'll usually need a building permit, applied for as a Class 10a structure (the non-habitable building class under the National Construction Code). We're happy to provide structure drawings or specs to support your application - just reach out to our team.
Max size without approval per State
- NSW: 20m² (up to 50m² in rural zones)
- QLD: 10m²
- VIC: 10m²
- SA: 15m²
- WA: 10m²
- TAS: 18m² (36m² if prefabricated)
- NT: 12m²
- ACT: 10–50m², depending on block size
*General guide only - local overlays (heritage, bushfire, flood, cyclone zones) can change this, so always confirm with your council first.
Not if you choose the heavy-duty floor kit, it can be installed directly onto uneven ground. If you already have a slab, the studio can be assembled directly onto it.
One concrete anchor should be used at each panel join, fixing through the base plate into the slab.
Yes, custom roof colours are available for an additional cost. Standard options vary depending on the studio model.
Cedar is naturally termite resistant, and the internal framing is treated pine, making termite damage highly unlikely. In the rare case it occurs, the studio is covered under Stilla’s 10-year warranty.
Yes. Each kit is supplied with pre-assembled panels that simply screw together, designed to make installation as smooth as possible.
Delivery times are displayed on each product page, just below the listed price.
Yes. Professional installation can be added at the time of purchase.

Visit our Narangba QLD or Alexandria NSW display to experience the craftsmanship in person.
There’s a sensory quality to timber that simply can’t be conveyed online. The weight of the door, the grain under your palm, the scent of raw cedar as you step inside. At our Narangba and Alexandria locations, you can explore the materials, scale and finish firsthand. Whether you're planning a garden shed, retreat, or something in between, this is where the idea becomes real.
