Modern Shed Plans - 8X12, 10X12, 8X20 feet

These printable PDF step-by-step plans are for our modern shed that features a covered outdoor storage area, as well as options for front or side facing single or double doors. All three sizes are included — 8X12, 10X12, 8X20 feet — and their interchangeable elements can be combined to create your own custom size. 

This shed was designed to be as simple and affordable as possible. Windows are simple panes of polycarbonate; walls, flooring, and roof sheathing are almost entirely uncut sheets of plywood, eliminating wasted materials and wasted time. Doors are oversized to allow for large equipment. 

SIZE: Enclosed areas are 96 sq ft, 120 sq ft, or 160 sq ft. Covered area on the right is 112 sq ft, provided by an 8 ft roof overhang.

COST: $3000-$4500 USD. Material choices and local pricing will vary the total build cost.

WHAT’S INCLUDED: Instantly available digital download includes printable PDF 65 page step-by-step instructions for all three sizes, double and single door options, as well as side door options. A materials list, a cut list, a digital album of 60 photos and illustrations of the build process, and a bonus 3D Sketchup model.

–Sketchup is a program that allows you to construct in 3D, examine all the construction details, modify the design, hide layers, take measurements, and explore the build. If you intend to modify these plans it’s a fantastic tool to make those changes and to familiarize yourself with the construction process digitally before doing it for real. Sketchup is available as an always-free web app, so there is no added cost.

–Please feel free to download any plans to price materials, or shop them around to builders to explore options or modifications. If you ultimately find that you can’t use them for your project I’m happy to get you a refund.
