The Author's House


Though it looks a bit large to be a garden office, this build by Danish architects SLETH in a wood in Aarhus for a female writer is in fact built specifically as a shedworking space, or as the architects put it "functions as her everyday office get-away". The main materials used are stone (for the floors, representing the forest floor), wood (Douglas fir throughout the interior), and copper (for the façade to blend in with the forest as it oxidises). Other features include a kitchenette, large sliding glass doors, bathroom, and roof space rooms which can be used for sleeping or storage.

It's a lovely working space, or as the architects put it "a blend of wellness and wellbeing close to nature that result in a place for inspiration, reflection, and contemplation."
