A few months ago, we shared an article about our Backyard Office and the ways in which it could help normalize your world amidst these uncertain times. When we first started building our Backyard Offices, we did so knowing that a continued work-from-home culture and a need for some normalcy in our day-to-day lives would be something truly special we could offer to our clients. With a continuation of social distancing, we wanted to come up with another great offering for you, but this time, we wanted it to be something that celebrated the things in our lives that exist opposite of work.
With an abundance of time and a lack of typical structure, many people have faced struggles with self-discipline and productivity. It also seems that much of the internet has coined the term coronacoaster, using humor to explain the various ups and downs of the pandemic. One day, you may be meditating, working out, and cleaning the house and the next day you may be in your pajamas at 5 PM and can’t remember what day it is. Recent upticks in the number of covid cases have caused many businesses to scale back their openings and extend work from home measures. With continued social distancing on the horizon, how can you continue to normalize the various aspects of your day-to-day life? We might just have the solution.
Introducing the Spindle & Oak’s very own Pubshed. If you can’t go to the bar, let us bring the bar to you! Miss going to your favorite local pub? It can be closer than you think. Several months into the pandemic, people began building mini bars in their own backyards. Similarly to our Backyard Office, the Pubshed provides a bit of normalcy in these uncertain times. If you already have a home office, maybe a Pubshed is a better fit for your home. Designed to celebrate the “little things” in life, the Pubshed can be a place to gather with friends, family, and loved ones. Whether you and your family is completely isolating or if you are seeing close friends, the Pubshed can be an escape for anyone.
Whether you’re dreaming of a UK styled pub or a French styled chalet with wine storage, we are here to help create that little piece of paradise you can escape to without a plane ticket. Missing the beach bar on the coast? We can do that too. As a design-build firm, we can help bring your dream space to life. The wife may prefer a wine cooler and the husband may prefer an installed beer tap. Maybe a TV to watch the game? A bay window area to relax and read a book? The possibilities are endless and we’re here to help. If you find yourself not fully committed to a leisure-filled Pubshed, we can even build a hybrid space that provides for work and play.
There is no doubt that these times have been trying for all of us. Spindle & Oak has been continually working to come up with different ways to provide for our clients and communities. Even in an article from Psychology Today called “How to Stay Positive During the Pandemic”, they discuss the importance on focusing what you can control. Despite being multiple months into the pandemic, many of us still feel out of control. So let’s continue to reintroduce even more normalcy back into our lives and focus on what we can control. Take a look at some of our sample designs below and feel free to contact us with any questions you may have. We can design any space to suit your needs and are more than happy to do so when you book a free design consultation with us. Cheers to the Pubshed!
