Head to the Shed in the Idler magazine

I've written something about the attraction of garden offices and sheds in general for the Idler magazine (for which regular readers will know I write a column about shedlike atmospheres each issue). Here's the beginning:

Alex Johnson on the sanity-saving oasis of the garden shed

People often talk about sheds as sanctuaries. At the moment, that’s especially true. “We see sheds as an escape most of the time,” agrees Uncle Wilco, founder of the Shed of the Year competition, “but right now they really are proving to be a oasis.”

Sheds are now performing all kinds of functions. People who don’t normally work from home are suddenly discovering the attraction – I’ve watched musicians perform concerts from inside their garden studio, auctioneers turn their garden sheds into salerooms, and national television broadcasters host their shows from their timber retreats.

You can read the rest here and you can find more details about subscribing to the magazine here.
