Ok, so there’s lots of talk on h&f about backyard sheds. This time I’m serious. Joe sent me this link via apartment therapy SF to a shed on Bowen Island in Vancouver. Well, it’s more than a shed. It’s a hotel-shed and it will set you back $175 a night.
Joe and I are definitely going to build some kind of structure in the backyard; we’ve waffled from super-tiny Readymade magazine’s shed like the one Meredith is building in Seattle to a larger shed that could house guests for the weekend (or perhaps more importantly to house us during the major part of our renovation). Did I mention this shed is technically larger than our current digs? Perhaps I’m recalling how utterly cold our house was last winter but I have to say that shed looks pretty cozy.
Do you think we should spend more $$ (and likely more time during the permitting process) and build a bigger shed or stick with a smaller one? Perhaps we should head up to Vancouver to try it out for size.
Here’s the link to the original posting by Apartment Therapy SF.
