Every woman deserves a space to call her own.

In A Woman’s Shed, author Gill Heriz celebrates the creativity, independence and resourcefulness of women through the wonderfully personal spaces they have created for themselves.

Gill interviewed 80 women, discovering why they wanted a shed of their own and, more importantly, what that space allows them to do. Some are places to write, paint and create, others offer room to garden, work or pursue a passion, while some simply provide somewhere quiet to sit, think and escape the busyness of everyday life.

Featuring an incredible 300 photographs, the book takes you inside an inspiring collection of sheds and introduces the fascinating women behind them. From beautifully styled retreats to practical working spaces, each one reflects the personality, interests and life of its owner.

A gorgeous book to browse slowly, gather inspiration from and leave proudly on the coffee table — especially for anyone dreaming about creating a little space of their own.
