A garden office is a great investment and, over time, you will realize that it is a life-changing one as well. Garden offices have become very popular over the past years as more and more people decided or were forced by the circumstances, to work from home. If you’re a business owner, a freelancer, or a remote employee, a garden office can make your life easier. But before we dive deeper into the advantages of having one, let’s see what a garden office actually is. 

What is a Garden Office?

A garden office, also known as a garden office pod or a posh shed is a nicely-designed, eco-friendly structure that can easily be installed in your garden or a backyard. Positioned away from the distraction of your home, a garden office is a professional, private, and comfortable space where you can focus on your work without any interruptions. Garden offices are ideal for entrepreneurs, freelancers, software developers, and pretty much anyone who can work remotely.

The idea of a home office will probably make you think of the old-fashioned room that looks just like a regular office. Luckily for us, modern garden offices are a lot nicer. Garden offices come in many different shapes and sizes, but most of them have a modern design and are customizable. There are so many different office solutions available on the market, from cool-looking furniture or the office building itself, which will allow you to turn your garden office into an awesome space.

The best thing about having a garden office is the fact that you can work in a quiet and private environment. If you’re working from home, you already know that the main house is a constant source of distractions and noise. The day-to-day chores, the TV, the pets, and even your kids might make it difficult for you to focus on your work. So, instead of telling them to be quiet and to turn off the TV, why not find a better solution, such as investing in a garden office.

Now that you know what a garden office is, let’s discuss the main advantages associated with buying one.

The Advantages of a Having a Garden Office:

You Will Save Time, Money, and Effort By Not Being Stuck in Traffic.

Commuting is the most annoying thing about going to work. If you don’t live near your workplace, you already know how much time, money, and effort you waste every day in traffic. Did you know that in the UK, people spent an average of 115 hours (almost 5 days) stuck in traffic in 2019? Imagine having 5 extra days to spend as you please. There’s also the financial aspect which means that depending on how far from work you live and what type of transportation you chose can cost you thousands of pounds a year. Also, being stuck in traffic can make you angrier and more depressed. The good news is that by getting a garden office, you’ll completely eradicate long and boring car rides to work or crowded public transport. As mentioned above, you’ll save quite a lot of money and you’ll get a few days extra to spend with your family. You’ll also lower your carbon footprint and the environment will be grateful.

A Garden Office Means Less Stress.

Your performance is greatly influenced by your well-being. If you’re stressed, you’ll be less productive. Numerous things cause stress and many of them can be avoided when you have a garden office. For instance, you get to work in a quiet and relaxed environment that’s decorated based on your taste. A garden office will also allow you to choose the ideal temperature and to choose comfortable furniture. Having full control over your working environment will reduce your stress significantly and you’ll be able to put in quality work.

Working in a Garden Office Will Help You Balance Your Personal Life and Your Professional One.

Instead of spending one or two hours in traffic every day, you’ll only spend 2 minutes from the main house to your garden office. As a result, you’ll get to enjoy breakfast and dinner with your family. In addition to being more present at home, you’ll also have more time for your hobbies and to spend time with your friends. Another benefit of having a dedicated workspace in your garden is the fact that you don’t mix your work stuff with your personal life. Working remotely in your kitchen or living room is never a good idea and chances are some important documents will get lost. So, instead of having a lot of chaos in your daily life, why not keep things separate but still close enough to keep things comfortable?
