When my mother moved into the existing granny suite that was part of my sister
and brother-in-law's farmhouse, she didn't have enough room to store some of
her material possessions. So she asked me to make her a storage shed beside the
farmhouse in the back yard. I thought that it would be neat to design a shed
that copied the style of the farmhouse, so I used the same pitch of roof as
well as the front and back dormers to give it that square farm-house look. From
the road, the resultant shed looks like a miniature version of the farmhouse,
although oriented in the opposite direction.
