The little old shed is the place of hobbies, of storage, of workshops. It is like a home just outside of your home. The definition of the shed is so varied that a shed can look like anything really.
A shed is a stylish addition to your back yard, giving everything you do in your backyard a purpose and a centre to revolve around. Having a shed will revolutionise what you do in your backyard, because it makes everything ordered and accessible. Who doesn't need more storage space.
I don't care what anyone else says, the key to a clean, tidy and ordered home is having the right amount of storage space.
I recently built a shed based on one I saw at National Sheds, and now I don't know how I ever did without one. Basic shed designs are really varied, so I spent a while looking around.
Having a shed will also add value to your property, especially if the shed is well-built, good quality and aesthetically pleasing.
Again, the scope for what a shed can look like and do is infinite, so if you want to make your shed multi-storied and windowed with an electricity and hot water connection and sound-proofed walls there's nothing stopping you. If you just want it to be a solid steel box structure with a door and some hooks on the walls, that's OK too. Just build your dream shed, whatever it is, because that way you will enjoy using it, which is after all the whole idea.
