Do you need to comply with building regs to do things like this?

If you mean is a building notice or application required, as I
understand it not. It is not being used as a habitable space, purely
as a workshop and for storage.

Would a garage converted to an office, or part office, be termed as
habitable space. The office is a work room too.


AIUI, you may have a Building Regulations issue, since I believe that
an office is deemed to be habitable space. It may also represent a
change of use. If the garage is integral or attached to the house
then there may be implications related to fire or possibly structural
aspects.
