That would last through about .5 winter in Minnesota. Uncovered like that, at least.

I have a feeling that this shed could have been built more effectively, they seem to be wasting some space in the middle. (Though that depends how deep the recess to the side is.)

there's a door on the far right....that probably allows access to the part behind the pull down table.....

sooooo practical!!! of course it should be made with hardier materials!!

I withdraw all my complaints, then it is actually really well thought through.

Oh I hate that stuff. It practically dissolves after a while. It would just wash away here!

I grew up in the northeast but moved to Los Angeles last year. It blows my mind that all of these colorful things are still solid and colorfast when they would've long been destroyed by a couple winters back east.

Even if they survived the first winter, opening that table up in the spring would probably reveal a bumper crop of mildew and spiders.

LOVE it all. The almost Mondrian style color blocking. The hair pin leg on the fold out table. Complete and total Mid-Century love. :)

WAY to much pegboard. :X

i don't think that's possible - think of all the pegs you could put in it!

They haven't got a single blade of grass, yet they have shovels, a rake and a reel mower in that shed. I guess they're for the front yard.

Ahh, masonite. How we did use you for everything. Now your last remnants are relegated to a board for Grandma's jigsaw puzzle, and that odd shaped piece I wedge in the door to keep the dogs out.

I see something like this, and I immediately start thinking, "Now, I could do this, and this, and turn it into a little stable..."

And here I am wondering how much stuff that built-in table can hold and if I could get out of that chair.

On the chair: it ain't easy. Back around 2000, I had a reproduction butterfly chair like that, and it was fine once you got in, if you had no plans to leave it for a while. I recall evacuation being quite a wiggly struggle, but then, I'm probably much shorter than the average person the chair was designed for. Even a couple inches likely makes a noticeable difference.

No, it's not just you: the butterfly chair is legendary in design circles* as one of the most uncomfortable chair designs of all time.

* Designers like to design new chairs. A lot. The problem is so rampant that there's now a "No New Chairs" movement, founded by some Finnish guys.

The color combo is ick for my tastes, but the general idea of the shed is brilliant. I agree with those who've said the space could be more efficiently plotted, but a fold-up grilling table? Sign me the frig up.
