The “Outside the Home” Home Office

My wife pointed out a website about TINY homes to me tonight (http://www.tinytexashouses.com). After taking a look at the site, I decided that these houses remind me alot of nice garden sheds. If people can live in less than 100 sq ft, I figured that they might make some practical use for the regular person. Then came the thought of an "Office Shed".

After some quick research, I discovered that I am not the first to have this thought. Many freelance designers, programmers, architects, anyone else that works from home sit at home in their den or at the kitchen table. These creatives need a space to be creative in. Along comes the "Office Shed"! They can be as fancy or simple as you want. They range from $5,000 for the standard shed to $15,000 for the office fit for a king. Gone are the days of fighting with kids for the space on the table, or working away after everyone is in bed just to have some peace and quiet. Now a creative simply has to take 10 steps out of the house into their custom, personal office. Feel free to ditch the tie and don the slippers.

Here are some of the offices that I liked:

Just spoke to the wife... She says that when we finally buy a house, I can build a "Back Office". As long as it matches the house. Score one for me!
