The Lab Shed is made for creatives. With a foldable table, for working on something like art, machinery, or whatever. Shelves for storing tools, parts, ect. And computer desk for recording findings, doing a quick google search, or to just relax. Basically a little workshop.

Reflection

Overall, this project taught me how to construct a shed. It increased my knowledge on how roofs, specifically roof frames, are constructed. It also expanded my knowledge on how to utilize a small space. The space has 122 SF to work with and I was able to fit three shelves, a desk, and a table with room around to spare.
