Case Studies

No two rooms are the same. Here are a few builds we're proud of — the spec, the challenges, and what the clients said.

A high-performance TrackMan studio

Studio 22 is a brand-new golf and Pilates facility opening in Dublin, combining precision coaching with Pilates-driven mobility work. They needed a simulator environment that could hold its own alongside tour-level instruction.

Here's what we installed:

  • Launch monitor: TrackMan — the benchmark for ball-flight physics and club-delivery data, trusted by tour professionals and elite coaches worldwide

  • Screen: Custom Sim Sports GTS Ultra, 5m × 3m — oversize for a wide, immersive field of view suitable for both coaching analysis and full-course play

  • Projector: Panasonic 6,000-lumen laser, UNICOL ceiling-mounted and aligned for long-term stability

  • PC: Dedicated high-spec gaming build, custom-configured to run TrackMan software and high-resolution course graphics without compromise

  • Control: 27" wall-mounted touchscreen for quick, intuitive session management

  • Flooring: 6m × 5m surface with 6m × 4m underlay; 6m × 4m putt turf; 400mm × 800mm hitting strip; 6m × 1m rough trim to frame the zone

  • Safety & finish: Custom-upholstered wall and ceiling pads, 2.4m deep — impact protection with a clean, professional aesthetic

The result is one of the most complete coaching environments we've built. Laser-projector brightness means the screen is crisp even in an open studio, and the oversize GTS Ultra puts the whole fairway in front of you rather than a letterbox slice of it.

8ft ceiling, retractable screen — and Rick's story

This one started with a phone call we get fairly often: *"I've a garden room I'd love to use — but I don't think the ceiling is high enough."*

He was right to be worried. The room came in at 2.4m (8ft) — and 2.8m (9ft) is our bare minimum to swing a driver freely. Most people in that position give up, or end up with a setup that clips the ceiling on every backswing.

The fix here was straightforward once we'd looked at the structure: the client cut into the ceiling above the hitting zone to bring the clearance up to the 2.8m (9ft) needed. Simple, yes — but it required planning carefully around where the joists sat.

From there the rest of the build came together:

  • Screen: Retractable custom drop-down screen — the room doubles as a gym, so the screen needed to disappear when not in use

  • Wall protection: High-impact curtains and acoustic panels fitted around the angled roofline

  • Calibration: Adjusted for the non-standard geometry to maintain accurate shot data

Here's what Rick said afterwards:

> *"JP was absolutely amazing with what he did with my unique space in my garden room. I had limited space to work with due to the room being used as a gym as well, and he created a plan at a reasonable cost that our whole family is enjoying. Drop down screen, high impact curtains and a funky angled roof meant he needed to think of a unique set up. My only issue is, now I have no excuse for my bad shots out on the course 🙂 I'm telling everyone I know that has interest, to get in touch with JP and Ellen!"* > — Rick

If your ceiling is tight, it's worth a conversation before you write off the space. We've solved this more than once.

A commercial fit-out at scale

For a full look at what a multi-bay commercial installation involves — from initial brief through to handover — see the K Golf World case study.

It covers the spec, the timeline, and the decisions that go into fitting out a venue rather than a home room. Worth a read if you're planning anything at that scale.

Every build starts with a conversation

The three builds above are different in almost every way — a professional coaching studio, a garden gym with an awkward ceiling, a commercial venue. What they have in common is that none of them fit a standard template off the shelf.

That's true of most rooms we walk into. The dimensions are always slightly off, the ceiling is lower on one side, there's a structural column in the wrong place, or the space needs to do two things at once.

If you're planning a build — at home or commercial — the right starting point is your room dimensions and a rough idea of what you want to get out of it. Send them to us and we'll tell you honestly what's possible, what it's likely to cost, and what we'd recommend.
