The writer is a peculiar animal. And when the mechanics of crafting that perfect piece of literature, a script or speech for a local politician, it's rarely a routine method. Each writer has his own panache, knack and tolerances. But if there's one thing virtually any writer just can't do without, it's the writers' room.
I found a stimulating choice for a writer’s room. One that’s ideal even if your budget is tight and you have two left hands when it comes to home improvement. The Burd Haward Architects’ self-assembled, pre-fabricated kit is available for around $7500. Just add foliage to grow to conceal the recessed ply façade and roof.
This cozy space recalls some spaces for writers that produced some awe-inspiring work:
 |
Leo Tolstoy's writing desk |
 |
Innovative rotunda for National Geographic's Wade Davis |
 |
Alfred Hitchcock with writer Pete Martin. 1957. |
 |
William Faulkner's trusty typewriter in his Oxford, MS home office. |
 |
An aspiring writer at Shakespeare & Co. |
 |
Ray Bradbury in his office. |
 |
Books aplenty in food writer's Nigella Lawson's writer's office. |
