Sheds 'can make great garden offices'

Sheds are a common site in gardens across the UK and often they are used for the storage of such things as garden equipment and bikes.

However, there is the potential to transform the constructions into more than this and they can become functional spaces from which to work.

This is according to a book entitled Shedworking by Alex Johnson, which the Scotsman points out highlights the potential of such constructions to be garden offices.

The publication stated: "The shed has evolved into the 21st century. It's now a super-desirable and practical room."

Commenting on Mr Johnson's case for using sheds in this way, the newspaper remarked: "It's quite easy for him to convince us that wandering to the bottom of the garden, where you can replace the incessant chattering of colleagues with the soothing song of blackbirds, is preferable to spending eight hours in a badly-designed concrete box."

According to the writer, using garden offices can increase levels of inspiration. In addition, he claims that home workers are more productive than their counterparts based in traditional offices.

Indeed, an increasing number of companies are recognising the benefits of this flexible way of operating and are enabling their staff members to perform their roles from their own homes.

As well as reducing the level of distraction they may face, this also means workers do not have to contend with potentially length commutes to and from work which can drain their energy and leave them less capable of performing to the best of their abilities.

Meanwhile, Bryan Mattinson, who is from a firm that supplies such garden constructions, noted that he has seen an increase in demand over recent months, with dual purpose sheds that are capable of storing equipment and housing space in which people can work becoming more popular.
