Silo writing shed

Selfbuild garden office projects come in all shapes and sizes. This is a tremendous one - a repurposed silo - being built for novelist SG Boudreaux which she is recording on her blog as it takes shape. Here's what she says about it:

The size of the silo is eighteen feet in diameter and eighteen feet tall. We plan on building a loft on the inside for more room. It will have a half bath on the bottom floor, and a couch made with pallets and twin mattresses (that's the plan so far anyway), a small refrigerator and coffee pot to avoid running to the house for refreshments (a place full of distractions), a desk and other small furniture pieces. The second story will possibly have a small dresser and a futon perhaps for extra sleeping for company. My husband owns his own construction company where they construct metal buildings, metal homes, metal awnings, and gutters. We plan on finishing the inside with metal panels to keep the silo look.
