This is my owner built 8′ by 13’4″ Storage Shed with a loft lumber storage area. The roof is a Gothic Dairy Barn style. Roof sheathing is 1/2″ plywood which was wet down so it could be bent to shape. A lot of Band Saw and Router work was required to build this Shed. I was limited to 120 sq.ft to meet the city building code for a non permitted shed. It was labor intensive but fun to build.
Lighting up an exterior isn't just about ambiance— it's also about code compliance. Here is what the code says about safety and efficiency when it comes to outdoor lighting.

Wonderful lines.
What a quaint and gorgeous design. Really very reminiscent of Holland I feel. I especially like the idea of putting ventilation in like that in the front panel instead of just having windows. As a manager at a Self Storage Facility in Gold Coast we can't keep stressing enough how important it is to have adequate air moving around the storage area so again, good job on you for thinking of an aesthetic way to do so!

This is so amazing! The exterior looks really stunning and the infrastructure looks so sturdy and well-made. I have been wanting to build a storage shed as well in my frontyard but I guess I do not have enough drive yet to actually get down and dirty to execute the project.
This storage shed is really made so beautifully! And the design is quite cute too! I mean it's truly like a miniature barn! I bet the kids would love playing in it if it isn't too full of items in storage too! I can just imagine them role-playing like they're on a farm or something and would be perfect as a "clubhouse" kind of thing!
Brilliant work done.
