Many of us are familiar with the term “man cave.” A personal den for watching the big game, a work studio or just a place that helps the guys in your life relax at the end of each day. But in the last year, we have seen a growing trend of women-centered spaces like “She Sheds”. An area in the home where women can go to focus on themselves and their interests or hobbies.
我们想帮助你创造放松的空间。在Ashley HomeStore，我们的目标是激励您创建一个家，是唯一真实的你。它反映了你的生活方式，你的审美和你的房子。如果你正在家里为自己打造一个僻静的空间，那你就来对地方了。把空房间改造成老板美女办公室?从头开始建造一个She Shed ?无论项目是什么，你都应该做一些你可以享受的事情。
What is a “She Shed”?
Like the slightly more menacing term “man cave,” She Sheds can be created in any home as a space to seek recreation and relaxation. Mentioned in thePinterest Top 100 Trends, She Sheds are dedicated entirely to the woman of the house, regardless of the size of said household.
Over time, the She Shed has evolved from just a decorated utility shed in the backyard for gardening tools and seasonal items likepatio furniture. The term now broadly relates to a portion of your home that was meticulously designed to bring you comfort and joy. We like to call them She Spaces. Even if you live in a studio apartment downtown, you can create your own She Space in your concrete jungle.
Give Yourself Shelter
Ready to create your special nook? Before you begin, remember that She Spaces are meant to inspire creativity and promote relaxation, so identify function first when creating your own. Ask yourself the following:
- How is this space being used?
- Is there a way to maximize its function?
- What are the important things to include?
- What brings me joy?
- How can I add that to my space?
- What is my design style?
既然建立这个空间的目的是为了给自己充电，消除压力，那么在房间里为自己制定一些指导方针。在休养期间保持活跃。Here are some examples:
- This is a phone-free space.
- 为了让这里成为一个开放的空间，我将在这里积极发言。
- I will take time to reflect on my day.
- I will make the most of this space.

A Pop of Color
Finishing touches help bring spaces together and add life to the decor landscape. Set the area apart from the rest of your home with colorful accents and features. Vibrant tones will welcome you into this nook and aid in the rejuvenation process.
If you prefer to keep your spaces neutral, let your She Space be your entrance into the interior design realm of color! Start small by incorporating nature into your space withhouseplants. Using ferns and ficuses in your She Space will add an eye-catching, yet neutral tone of green. The foliage will promote relaxation and can provideair purification benefits. However, if you are unsure of your green thumb, we also suggest less-demanding succulents.
