This 36′ x 48′ x 18′ post-frame shop in Athol, ID pairs a clean black exterior with warm Burntwood Charcoal and timber accents. Steel Structures America also added a 12′ open lean-to on each side, giving the owner covered storage along the full length of the building.
On the front gable end, two overhead doors open into the shop. In addition, each door sits under a short steel canopy on wood knee braces. Meanwhile, a 14′ timber truss in the gable peak matches the stained lean-to posts. Because a horizontal Burntwood Charcoal wainscot wraps the base, the building blends naturally into its wooded property.
