Hackney Shed scoops Small Project award

A lovely garden office designed by Office Sian in Hackney, London (they call it a "functional and warm urban haven") is one of the winners in the Architects' Journal Small Projects 2011 awards (another winner was Outlandia). It has fully retractable, full-height doors for a nice view of the garden and a rather cleverly designed library built into the structure. At the back of the shed is a hidden rooflight. The design was also shortlisted in last year's New London Architecture awards.
