Did the very same a few years ago.
Some of the stuff i learnt.
Dig in a duct as big as you can to future proof services from house to "shed". Learned the hard way assuming the super dooper wifi would service the workspace. It didn't. Then my missus work insisted on a hard connection to her work laptop. Lots of wishing id just taken the time to run services down a duct.
Timber stud. was expensive for materials then. It'll be hella expensive now. Id look at metes instead.
Plasterboard fixing and taping ready for a plasterer should be pretty straightforward. When i worked in house bashing, some of the states of pboard that was plastered over and gave a good finish, you should be ok. That said, the tighter the joint the better.
Sparks coming over and giving a cert on someone else's work. We couldn't find one. We ended up pulling cables and fixing boxes ourselves and letting a spark wire sockets (at an extortionate rate) and certify. Still cheaper than letting him do the lot (by quite a way).
Insulate, insulate, insulate. Typing in gloves was not fun.
I agree with comments above about creating small rooms. Big space with movable panels maybe?
Anyway. Theres my comments. Looks ace. Just wish i had a decked area you could see from space.
