The Classical Part of the Shed as a Power Supply for My Studio/Office/Study

The home-based solar structures project identifies the snap & grow greenhouse(search greenhouse at link below) as the classical component of the hybrid shed.  I don't exactly know the history of the green house, but I found a link that includes the history of sheds. Take a look at the Green Sheds link at this site as well as the Backyard retreat link to get ideas of a different kind of outdoor structure. Imagine solar panels as well as skylights on the finished structure.  The polycarbonite  panels in snap & grow greenhouse afford little attenuation of the solar radiation (below UV range of course) and therefore they are a great "shelter" and storage area for the solar briefcase(search briefcase at link below) and the solar generator(search generator at image link below).  These items combined with the portable office equipment and decor provide a great solar system for the self sufficient portion of the hybrid.
