A cluster of A-frames are now mostly rentable studio space, aside from the original one where the Recycling Bin started, which is now their customer service area with some of the nicest supplies for sale. A-frames make great studios because they are concise and have two levels. You can have a jumbo studio on both, a large studio on the floor and sleep in the loft, or modest living space downstairs with a smaller studio in the loft.
