What makes a great home office? As a realtor, Dirk knew exactly how he could transform a backyard shed and start working from home in style. His customizations turned our Premier PRO Studio shed into a cozy workspace with plenty of room to get down to business.
Dirk had been planning on adding an extra workspace to his home for years, but wasn’t sure where to start. Rather than renovating his home, Dirk came to Tuff Shed. “From a real estate perspective, you’re adding 100 square feet and that’s a big upgrade to your home value,” says Dirk. “Tuff Shed has been in the business so long that you’re going to get efficiency, transparency, and some great advice on choosing your shed.”
Working with our Milpitas, CA team, Dirk designed a 10x12 Premier PRO Studio with a few oversized windows and full lite French doors. He finished out the studio with electricity, insulation, and faux wood linoleum flooring, creating a workspace that’s bright and functional. “I can go out to the office and have uninterrupted conference calls, away from our busy home. It’s full of natural light, I can get fresh air, and it’s finished out to fit our style,” says Dirk.





As home offices grow in popularity, Dirk has some advice for all those thinking about working from home. “The work from home trend may be new, but Tuff Shed has been designing and building these for years. Their baseline product is a great starting point to customize from, almost like ordering a hamburger and getting all the toppings you want and having a professional assemble it.”
