Office Sheds

Office Sheds — Your Backyard Home Office, Built the Nordic Way

Work smarter, commute never. Nordic Sheds’ collection of office sheds gives you a dedicated, distraction-free workspace right in your own backyard — crafted from FSC-certified Nordic timber, delivered free across Florida, Georgia, and the Southeast USA. Whether you’re a remote professional, a freelancer, a small business owner, or simply someone who deserves a proper place to think, our backyard office sheds are built to make every working day better.

Why a Backyard Office Shed Changes Everything About Working from Home

Working from home sounded like the dream — no commute, no office politics, no dress code below the waist. But for most people, the reality arrived with a different set of problems: the kitchen table that doubles as a desk, the video calls interrupted by the dog, the inability to mentally “leave” work at the end of the day because work never had its own room to begin with.

A backyard office shed solves all of this in one move. It gives your work a proper address — a dedicated, purposeful space that you walk to in the morning and walk away from at five o’clock. That physical separation between home and work is something a spare bedroom or dining table can never truly replicate, and its effect on focus, productivity, and wellbeing is difficult to overstate.

Nordic Sheds’ office sheds are designed specifically for this purpose. Built from slow-grown Nordic timber with generous windows, solid construction, and clean Scandinavian lines, they are buildings that make you want to sit down and do great work. Here’s why thousands of professionals across Florida and the Southeast have made the switch from the kitchen table to the garden office.

The Real Benefits of a Dedicated Home Office Shed

Genuine Work-Life Separation

One of the most consistent findings in remote work research is that physical boundaries between work and home life dramatically improve wellbeing. When your office is a separate building — even 30 steps across the backyard — your brain registers the transition. You enter “work mode” on the walk over, and you leave it behind on the walk back. That simple psychological boundary is worth more than any productivity app or time-management system, and it’s built into the architecture of a backyard office shed from day one.

Fewer Distractions, More Deep Work

Open-plan houses are wonderful for family life. They’re not so wonderful when you’re trying to concentrate on a client proposal, a complex spreadsheet, or a piece of writing that demands sustained focus. An office shed puts a door — a real, solid door — between you and the noise of daily domestic life. The result is longer uninterrupted stretches of focused work, better output, and far less of the low-grade exhaustion that comes from constant context-switching.

A Professional Setting for Client Calls and Video Meetings

First impressions matter, and the background of your video calls is part of yours. A dedicated office shed gives you a consistently professional, controlled environment for client meetings — clean, well-lit, and free of the background chaos that a busy household tends to deliver at the worst possible moments. Set it up once, and every call from then on projects exactly the image you want.

It Pays for Itself Over Time

The numbers add up faster than most people expect. Consider what the average professional spends on commuting — fuel, parking, train tickets, the morning coffee that turns a 45-minute commute into a bearable one. Add in the cost of a commercial office lease, even a hot-desking arrangement or co-working membership, and a Nordic office shed pays for itself in months rather than years. It’s a one-time investment in a structure that will serve you for decades, built from Nordic timber that’s designed to last.

A Long-Term Asset That Adds Property Value

A quality backyard office building isn’t just an operational asset — it’s a financial one. Buyers looking at residential properties increasingly recognise the value of a dedicated home office space, particularly one that is architecturally considered and built to a premium standard. A Nordic office shed built from slow-grown timber and designed with clean Scandinavian lines is the kind of feature that strengthens a property listing, not one that raises eyebrows.

Built to Flex as Your Needs Change

Life doesn’t stay still, and neither do your space requirements. The office shed you build today as a solo home office can become a creative studio, a consulting room, a teenager’s study space, a gym, or a guest annexe as circumstances evolve. Nordic timber structures are built to last decades, and their open, adaptable interiors make repurposing effortless. This isn’t a temporary fix — it’s a permanent upgrade to how your property works.

Our Office Shed Collection — Scandinavian Design, Southeast Durability

Every office shed in the Nordic Sheds range is built from the same FSC-certified Nordic timber, manufactured in our Northern European facilities, and designed to perform beautifully in the Florida and Southeast climate. Here’s a look at the models our customers love most.

Helsinki 34 — The Smart, Space-Efficient Home Office

Starting from $3,249, the Helsinki 34 is the entry point to professional backyard working — and it doesn’t feel like a compromise. At 3 x 3.8m, it provides a focused, single-room workspace with enough room for a full desk setup, shelving, and the kind of personal touches that make a space feel genuinely yours. The Helsinki 34 is ideal for freelancers, writers, consultants, and anyone who needs a clean, quiet place to work without requiring an expansive footprint. Its compact size also means it’s less likely to require a building permit, making the path from purchase to first working day as smooth as possible.

Copenhagen 44 — The Professional’s Choice

The Copenhagen 44 brings a more generous floor plan to the backyard office category, offering the kind of space that suits dual-monitor setups, standing desks, client seating, or a small conference table. Its 44mm log wall construction provides excellent natural insulation — keeping the interior comfortable and temperate during Florida’s hot summers and the occasional cool winter morning — while its architectural profile gives the backyard a distinctly premium feel. Available from $4,082.

Tallinn 44 A — Space, Light, and Serious Ambition

Named for Estonia’s elegant capital city, the Tallinn 44 A is for professionals who want their workspace to reflect the quality of their work. With a larger footprint, premium 44mm wall construction, and a design that maximises natural light through generous window placement, the Tallinn 44 A creates an office environment that motivates rather than merely accommodates. This is the shed for the business owner, the creative director, or the architect who spends serious hours at their desk and wants every one of those hours to happen in a space that feels exceptional. From $6,149.

Oslo 44 — The Versatile Work and Storage Combination

The Oslo 44 is one of the most practical office sheds in our range, combining a well-proportioned main office space with integrated storage — the kind of dual-purpose configuration that makes a real difference when you need to keep both a professional workspace and organised storage under the same roof. Perfect for tradespeople, property managers, small business operators, or anyone who needs a home base for both paperwork and equipment. From $4,949.

Stockholm 44 — New Arrival, Instant Favourite

The newest addition to the Nordic Sheds office range, the Stockholm 44 brings contemporary Scandinavian design sensibility to the backyard office in a package that punches well above its price point. Clean lines, modern proportions, and the same slow-grown Nordic timber quality that underpins everything we build. For those who want a workspace that looks as good from the garden as it feels from the inside, the Stockholm 44 is the one to consider. From $4,149.

Stockholm 28 — Compact, Focused, Ready for Work

When the priority is a clean, focused workspace and the footprint needs to stay modest, the Stockholm 28 delivers everything that matters. This compact office shed is purpose-built for single-occupant productivity — a proper desk, good light, solid walls that keep the outside world at bay, and a design that earns its place in any backyard. Ideal for smaller gardens, urban lots, or anyone who prefers an intimate workspace over a sprawling one. From $3,749.

How to Choose the Right Office Shed for Your Needs

With six office shed models in the Nordic range spanning different sizes, wall thicknesses, and configurations, it’s worth taking a moment to think through what matters most for your situation before you buy.

Size and Floor Plan

Think about how you actually work. A solo writer or consultant needs surprisingly little floor space — a good desk, a comfortable chair, and decent light go a long way in a compact 3 x 3.8m shed. But if you need room for two workstations, regular client visits, a printer station, or a small meeting area, stepping up to a 44-series model with a more generous footprint will make a significant difference to how the space functions day to day.

Wall Thickness and Insulation

For a home office that you plan to use year-round — and particularly through Florida’s summer heat — wall thickness matters. Our 44mm log wall models offer substantially better natural insulation than thinner alternatives, helping to keep internal temperatures more stable and reducing the load on any cooling or heating unit you install. If your shed will serve as a year-round workspace, investing in thicker walls from the outset is worth it.

Natural Light

Natural light has a measurable impact on mood, focus, and even sleep quality. All Nordic office sheds are designed with window placement in mind, but some models — like the Tallinn 44 A — are particularly well-specified for natural light. If you spend long hours at a desk and light quality matters to you, it’s worth comparing window configurations across the range before you decide.

Connectivity and Power

A backyard office shed needs electricity, and ideally a fast, reliable internet connection. Nordic office sheds are delivered in natural timber with unfinished interiors, giving you complete freedom to run cabling, install sockets and light fittings, and set up your connectivity infrastructure exactly as you need it. Many customers hire an electrician to connect the shed to their home’s supply at the same time as assembly — a straightforward process for a qualified tradesperson.

Permit Requirements

In most Florida and Southeast US municipalities, structures under 150 square feet do not require a building permit. Several of our office shed models fall within or close to this threshold. Nordic Sheds can help you navigate the permit requirements for your specific location — just get in touch and we’ll guide you through it.

Nordic Quality You Can See, Feel, and Rely On

Every office shed we sell is manufactured in our Northern European facilities using slow-grown Nordic timber — the same material that Scandinavian craftspeople have used for centuries to build structures that outlast generations. Cold winters and short growing seasons produce wood with tightly packed growth rings, making it denser, harder, and significantly more resistant to moisture and decay than fast-grown alternatives.

FSC Certification on Every Sale

Nordic Sheds holds FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certification across all sales and production processes, meaning every office shed you buy from us is backed by independent verification of responsible forestry practices. It’s a standard we’re proud to uphold, and one that matters increasingly to customers who want their purchasing decisions to align with their values.

Anti-Rot Warranty Up to 5 Years

We stand behind the quality of our timber with an anti-rot warranty of up to 5 years on all office sheds. In a climate like Florida’s — where humidity and heat can be demanding on outdoor structures — this warranty is a meaningful commitment to the durability of what we sell. Full warranty terms are listed on each individual product page.

Tongue and Groove Construction Throughout

From floor to roof, Nordic office sheds are built using precise tongue and groove joinery. This traditional construction method creates tight, weatherproof connections at every joint — no reliance on sealants or fillers that degrade over time. The result is a structure that stays dry, structurally sound, and true to its original form for the life of the building.

Natural Timber — Ready for Your Finish

All Nordic office sheds arrive in their natural timber tone, untreated and unpainted. This gives you complete control over the final look: a grey Scandinavian stain that weathers beautifully over time, a dark charcoal to complement a contemporary garden landscape, or a simple protective coating that lets the natural wood grain remain the visual focus. The choice — like the workspace itself — is entirely yours.

Delivery, Assembly & Getting Started

Free Delivery, Including Unloading

Every Nordic office shed comes with free delivery to your address anywhere in Florida, Georgia, and across the Southeast USA. We deliver to all states in the lower 48 — contact our team for a quote if you’re outside our core delivery area. Crucially, free delivery means free unloading too: our team handles everything on arrival, so your shed components arrive exactly where they need to be without you lifting a finger.

Simple DIY Assembly

Nordic office sheds are designed for DIY assembly with a detailed, easy-to-follow installation manual included with every order. A standard 10 x 10 ft office shed typically takes two people approximately 8 hours to assemble using basic tools. Pre-numbered components, pre-cut timbers, and the tongue and groove system make the process logical and manageable — even for those without specialist construction experience. If you’d prefer professional installation, our team can recommend qualified local contractors with experience assembling Nordic structures.

Delivery Timelines

In-stock office sheds are typically delivered within 2–4 weeks of your order. Made-to-order or custom models have a lead time of up to 90 days. Our sales team will confirm your specific delivery window when you place your order, so you can plan your setup accordingly.
