Can you think of an underrated piece in the bathroom? When I first put my mind to it, an image of a toilet paper holder appears, and with reason. Taking into account its functional and aesthetic role in the room, it deserves more praise than we usually tend to give it.

Saving the planet, protecting the environment, preserving our eco systems, these are all issues that have entered the mainstream conversation, and not because they're trendy, but because they are a necessity. Not only does our own existence as spices depend on it, but all life on Earth, all that has contributed to us being here, enjoying the privileges of being human, depends on it too. And being humane, like the word itself, should be encompassing and common for every human.

Maybe you haven’t thought of this type of sinks in a long time, but they’re back. In the past, the only way to wash laundry was by using such sinks and basins. They were later substituted by automatic washers and dryers that did the entire work. Of course, at the cost of high use of energy.

The ancestor of pizza, named “fouace” or “bianca”, was born in Naples in the 16th century, as a simple pancake cooked in a wood-fired oven. Two centuries later, people began adding tomatoes to it, and pizza covered in tomato sauce appeared for the first time, at the beginning known as “rossa”. Today, pizza is a well loved and popular food all over the world.

Fire pits are a great way for outdoorsy people to get more use out of their backyard during the colder months. They also make for nice gathering spots at other times of the year, where you can roast marshmallows and weenies, talk to friends or just unwind after a long day at work. Sitting in a circle on your patio just doesn't have the same feel to it without a fire. Everyone would just lose interest quickly and walk away.

Riding a bicycle every day or just during the weekends is a great way to stay healthy. Cycling makes the whole body move which helps improve blood flow, lower cholesterol levels and improve heart health too. Since your bike takes care of you, it's important that you take care of it too. Regular maintenance is a good first step but what can keep your bike safe from the elements and prying is a bike shed. Bicycle sheds provide the space necessary for you to store your bike but they can be much more than just that if you know what to look for in one.

What to Consider

Size

The size of the shed will depend on that of the bike but usually there are two types sheds when it comes to width. Bike sheds for road bikes are going to be anywhere between 38 cm and 46 cm wide, whilst sheds for mountain/ hybrid bikes are between 51 cm and 61 cm wide. You'll need to measure the height and length of your bicycle too and take into consideration the accessories that come with it. Usually if you have only one bike, you'll need a shed that's about 1.8 m long and about 60 cm wide. 2 bikes will require a shed of the same length and width of 90 cm. Just add about 30 cm of width for every bike.
