Home office in the garden

I'm thinking of getting a wooden office/studio built in my garden but I'm concerned that my books & paperwork might get damp. I need it to be usable all year round. It will be insulated & have electricity & have single glazed windows. Would be interested to hear from anyone who has one & if you are happy with it.

It should have DG windows and be well insulated, how is it going to be heated?
I'm building a garden office in the NY but mines a proper building (we are in a conservation area and limited as to what I can do, so it will be in the style of the existing out buildings.)
In order that it is usable all year, insulation and heating are key.

Thanks for your reply Wonkylegs. I was just going to have a portable fan heater in there. Don't think my budget will stretch to the double glazing but the company that makes the office will be doing the insulation & cladding.
Hope your building project goes well in the New Year.

Thanks Thunderbolt. Will take a look at the Tiger Sheds website. Mine is going to cost just over £4K without DG but with everything done for us - we've had far too many DIY disasters to risk doing any of it ourselves!
