Sandstone potting shed cabinet

A garden shed shrunk to a 1.2m x 600mm cabinet for a patio with no room for a shed: ledged-and-braced doors under a corrugated pent roof, a tall bay with hooks for rakes, spades and the broom, three shelves for pots, seed trays and compost bags, and a floor raised on bearers so nothing sits in the wet.

More outdoor designs

• Oak bird feeding station A freestanding white oak bird table on crossed, braced feet: a slatted feeding tray at 1.5m under a verdigris gable roof that keeps the seed dry, two arms for hanging feeders, and a dome baffle half way up the laminated post so squirrels never reach the table - it stands on a lawn or a terrace, no digging.
• Black timber log store A 1.8m log store in black-stained timber: laminated posts in three frames under a raked roof of boards capped with a matt black standing-seam sheet, spaced cladding on the ends and back so the wind dries the logs, a slatted floor held off the ground and a kindling shelf in one bay.
• Oak garden shower corner A corner outdoor shower in oiled white oak: two 2.1m slatted screens on three posts give privacy on the open side and keep the spray off the house wall, a duckboard floor drains straight through to the gravel, and a slatted bench, soap ledge and robe hooks mean you can sit to rinse feet and hang a towel in a 1.2 x 1m footprint.
