Modern Shed Idea: Yoga Studio


In the fast-paced world we live in, finding a tranquil space to unwind and practice self-care is essential. If you're a yoga enthusiast seeking a dedicated sanctuary to nourish your mind, body, and soul, building a Modern Shed as your personal yoga studio can be a game-changer. In this blog post, we'll explore the incredible benefits and considerations of crafting a modern shed to create your very own yoga oasis.




A Floor is Not Just a Floor


When Ryan Smith, the founder and designer of Modern Shed, living in Seattle, where there are no “alleys” behind homes for easy backyard access, he designed the entire pre-fab building to be in “panels." This allowed two people to carry these panels from the street to the backyard easily. The result included an entire floor “system” as well so the building could sit on simple piers instead of an expensive concrete slab, or in case of sloped land, on tall-in-ground concrete tubes or big-foot piers or pin piers in earthquake zones.

Housing Crunch: A Modern-Shed Solution


It’s no secret that the nation is in the midst of a housing crisis. Rent and the price of a home are rising, creating a problem not just for the most vulnerable people, like the chronically homeless, but also for the average worker, the middle-income earners who are finding themselves priced out of the market.
