How to choose a garden office

Searchme Maximize stack view It's the most basic question of all when it comes to shedworking - how do I choose the right garden office for me? One of the problems is that when you type in "garden office" or "garden studio" into your browser of choice you are bombarded with options. Of course, as many people on the lookout for a shed to work in have done over the last couple of years, you can browse around Shedworking and especially the list in the right hand column of suppliers. But that is time consuming. Here, above, is an interesting new way of looking for the shed of your dreams which I'm experimenting with via searchme - you are shown a series of web pages (I'll do a separate one for videos tomorrow) which you can easily flick through and click onto to get to the page. It's by no means an exhaustive list nor does inclusion mean endorsement by Shedworking, but I'd be interested to hear what readers think about it.

Dateline: Daybreak, Utah I just returned from Utah where I attended a fascinating community planning brainstorm and then toured the state's newest new town: Daybreak, at the south end of the Salt Lake Valley. Views across the valley to jagged peaks promote blue sky thinking: no wonder that famous early settler said "This is the Place." The planning session, called...
