  • MorphPOD

    Love the shape and alternative construction method of this tiny building.

    “Shropshire-based MorphPODs offer two timber garden office designs for shedworkers. There’s the the MorphPOD 2.2 (2.2 metres wide, x 3.3m long internal) which is largely built in their workshop and delivered by lorry or trailer, with optional bolt-on wheels so it can be moved around on site.”

  • Tiny House in a Barn

    Nick Weston, the author or The Treehouse Diaries: How to Live Wild in the Woods, has moved out of his treehouse in England and has setup a new humble living space inside an old barn. By comparison he’s now living a modern life with electricity, a gas stove, and running water (just outside from a garden faucet). It might not be the lap of luxury but Nick likes it just fine and as he says, “its as cheap as chips”. Read more about Nick’s tiny house in a barn.

  • More sheds than households in UK says new report

    I think this new report from Screwfix confirms my suspicion that tiny outbuildings are much more popular in the UK than America. It’s estimated that there are as many as 30 million outbuildings in Britain, which is more than the total number of households.
