Shop with living quarters
Depending on your chosen configuration, a standard metal building can be designed and customized as a single- or two-story live-work property with one or multiple bedrooms.
Living space can be located on the same floor of a single-story building, on the first floor of a two-story building with an apartment, or side-by-side, allowing for a full-height shop space.
Explore our sample designs, and let our experienced suppliers help you select the optimal building layout for your new live-work space.
