Long before we pimped the Kithaus K3 to our friends here at GearCrave, we’ve had a serious obsession with shed offices, guest houses and prefab homes.  As a work from home blog editor, I can’t tell you how excited I get about a shed office of my very own, a man room where I can think and play in peace.  Bowen Island, B.C. resident James Glave knows this feeling all to well, which inspired him to create the Eco Shed, a guest home that he makes available to vacationers on his visually breathtaking island.  If we had a shed like this in our back yard, with a queen sized bed, a kitchenette, a wood stove and a three-quarter bath (and most importantly, a wi-fi connection), there would be no way in hell we’d rent it out to strangers.  But hey, James Glave is a much more generous guy than we are…  (thanks to GearCrave reader Matt for inspiring us about shed offices again)
