Introducing MetroPrefab
If you’re in the market for a tiny office, MetroPrefab has just the thing for you – the MetroSHED. This freestanding structure is versatile, as it can be fully insulated and designed to match any home style. Despite its compact dimensions of just 9×13 feet, the MetroSHED feels spacious and comfortable, thanks to its large glass doors and high ceilings.
Let me tell you about Modern Spaces and Sheds. It’s a company run by the founder, David Ballinger. He says that lots of their customers actually use their sheds, called MetroSHEDs, as home offices. Isn’t that cool?
But it doesn’t stop there. These sheds are so versatile! Some people who are musicians use them as recording studios. Imagine having your very own music studio right in your backyard! And you know what else? Artists use these sheds as creative getaways. It’s like having your own little sanctuary to let your imagination run wild.
Now, remember when I mentioned client-based businesses? Well, even massage therapists love these sheds. They can keep their businesses home-based so they don’t have to bring their clients into their personal space. It’s a win-win for everyone!
Introducing Modern Spaces and Sheds
Modern Spaces and Sheds is a company based in California, specifically in the Bay Area. They work with a lot of customers who want to have their own home offices. Pretty neat, right?
When I spoke with USamerica.US, owner Eric Enns explained how having a backyard office provides a wonderful solution. He said, It’s great because you can have your own space. If you have children, you don’t have to worry about them being noisy or interrupting you. Plus, your commute is just a short walk to your backyard, and you don’t have to deal with traffic or anything like that.
Eric also mentioned a few other advantages, like being able to increase the usable space in your home without altering the existing structure or design. In fact, sometimes it’s more cost-effective to add a small structure to your backyard instead of a traditional home extension. And in some cases, these structures are small enough that you don’t even need additional permits, although that depends on your city’s regulations.
I wanna tell you all about Modern Spaces and Sheds. They have a bunch of different models with different prices and options. You can get anything from small tin huts to totally customized spaces. Pretty cool, right?

When it comes to kitHAUS, you’ve got lots of options for customization. You can choose your own windows, doors, and flooring. It’s like building your dream space!
And get this—about half of kitHAUS’s customers use these structures as customized home offices in their backyards. The rest of them use them as art or yoga studios, guest suites, and even tiny homes. Cool, huh?
Oh, I almost forgot!
I wanted to tell you about this cool thing that Alchemy Architects has created called the weeHouse. What makes it so unique is that they actually build the parts for it in a factory and then complete the construction on site.
The cost of a weeHouse depends on a few factors like size, location, and any upgrades you might want. For example, a weeHouse that’s 450 square feet with one bedroom and one bathroom can range in price from $80,000 to $125,000. Keep in mind that this doesn’t include delivery and other fees. Alchemy Architects also offers larger models that can go up to 2,000 square feet, with three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms.
