Sketch

Here’s a fun little side project we started developing many months ago. The design started with this sketch and of course has evolved as all good designs do. Our goal was to take the idea of a typical, run-of-the-mill storage shed and see if we could design something both functional and unique that was cost competitive with a similar sized, pre-fab unit.

The material palette for the exterior will consist of Hardie panel & lap siding and Polygal polycarbonate sheets. We’re excited about exploring the use of the Polygal sheets. In lieu of traditional windows we wanted a product that would: allow natural light, provide shear strength and incorporate well into the overall exterior design.

Talk about making the most of every square inch.   This 300+ square foot apartment shows how good design can make a small space very usable and efficient.
