Cabins and Sheds

Sheds are no longer neglected buildings at the end of the garden. They have become an area of our home to be discovered by creative designers who see the garden as an extendable space of the home, whether in the heart of the city or in a larger rural setting. This book uses over 50 examples to inspire so you too can create your own special space.

In text, drawings, and photographs, this book analyses three projects and shows parallels and similarities. Inspired by Tolstoy's story How Much Land Does a Man Need?, it asks: "How much house does a person need?", thereby providing a pointed contribution to the current discussion on the requirement for housing.

The fourth edition of the classic DIY guide for backyard builders includes 23 shed designs to suit all needs and tastes, including many for specialised gardens.

Environmentally friendly homes, cutting-edge sustainable architecture that have ecological solutions and a low environmental impact.
