A: 72"X80" sized French Doors {don't know manufacturer}, delivered simply primed and finished painted w/ Sherwin Williams paint. **Q: What are the dimensions of this studio?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: The foot print is 14'X26'. **Q: studio shed** *(in Photo Questions)* isn't this shed just a studio shed? A: It's a Studio Shed w/ super insulation. I was hired to complete the insides of the building. I sealed all contacts on the insides where wall studs met plywood siding w/ closed cell foam. The ceiling got 8 " of foam insulation. Then we wrapped the walls w/ reinforced plastic and blew cellulose into all wall cavities reaching an R-24-26 value. Then drywall was installed and the after it was finished we installed the beetle kill pine ceiling, bk window, bk door and bk base trim. A small radiator style finned space heater heats the place in about 10-15 minutes. **Q: What size is the foot print?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Thanks for the clarification. Over time, numbers get kind of fuzzy. **Q: Love the siding material used on this house. What is it?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Sorry about the late reply....did you ever start your project? If you still have questions, contact me again and I'd be more than happy to help. Jean-Pierre **Q: Building an office** *(in Photo Questions)* Prefab? Cost estimate? A: I'd figure around $115 per sq ft like the artist shed shown here. Plumbing would be more. Hope that helps. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-13.*
