Ask HN: Would you work out of a Costco shed over an open office setup?

#1
I'm trying to think of ways to build cheap offices instead of the dreaded open office plan. My first stop was a recording both since they are basically what I am looking for but are way to expensive. Is there a way you could take a Costco shed, soundproof it, add a desk for under $500? Would you work in it?

For clarity, I am suggesting putting this inside an existing office space.

That sounds like a very expensive way to create workspaces. What's wrong with the traditional stud wall, packed with insulation, and finished with plasterboard / drywall?

You don't always have control on how much you can alter an office space. Something more modular like a shed/booth could be moved easily for an expanding team.
