Our measurements (i.e. 8ft. x 12ft.) are taken from the outside of the floor & wall framing, therefore, they don't include the siding, and/or sheathing.
For true interior measurements, subtract the thickness of the wall framing; 3 ½” for 2x4 walls, and 5 ½” for 2x6 walls. Note: 2 x 4 is actually 1 ½” x 3 ½” and 2 x 6 is actually 1 ½” x 5 ½” due to the properties of "finished” lumber.
For true exterior dimensions, add the siding, sheathing (if applicable), and corner trim pieces. The Canexel siding is 3/8" thick, the cedar siding is 3/4" thick and the log siding is 1 1/2" thick. The wall sheathing varies from 7/16” to 3/4”. The corner trim is 3/4".
If you have any other questions pertaining to the size of your Copper Creek home studio building, please do not hesitate to ask us, we're here to help.
In strong competition with hip roofing, gable roofing is up there for the most popular roofing style. Common in Copper Creek garden sheds are gable roofs, which typically features a continuous ridge, with two sides sloping from the center toward the walls of the structure.
Gable roofs are much easier to frame, sheath, and finish, giving the vertical wall component of a gable roof its style, known as “gable ends”.
Ventilation is easy to install. Due to its geometry and access to gable ends, roof vents can be placed on the gable ends rather than the roof itself. Consult with your contractor or roofing company, for the most effective ventilation system for your roof.
Soffits are the cedar trim pieces that are attached to the underside of the rafter ends. Fascia is typically the cedar 1x4 that’s used to cover the rafter tips and provide a nice straight level line for the bottom of your roof.
The Copper Creek style is well suited for a traditional patio stone foundation. A concrete pad is also ideal for poolside applications.

Like all summerwood designs, the Copper Creek home studio house is a fantastic display of premium grade materials coming together for any of your outdoor needs. Our materials are chosen for their aesthetic appeal, durability, and environmental friendliness. Construction is engineered for garages and cabins but ideally suited for storage sheds and pool cabanas as well.

If you are thinking of adding insulation, consider adding one of our "enhanced siding packages". It's a layer of sheathing (OSB or plywood) and house wrap (Typar and optional HomeSlicker) that provides a moisture barrier to your structure.
The Copper Creek style allows for a wide array of interior finishes. Our cedar siding or framing interior upgrade can be incorporated on the walls and/or ceiling, providing a warm rustic feel.
Below is a drawing for a dormer trim on a Copper Creek design. Dormers may vary in sizes and material, but the construction procedure remains the same.
The Copper Creek style roof features a standard 6” overhang where the roof meets the walls. The overhang is trimmed out with a soffit and fascia board. Extra overhang is offered in increments of 6” (i.e +6 (12”), +12 (18”)).!
Once your Copper Creek studio is completed, there are a few things you can do on the inside to add to the comfort and enjoyment of your new Summerwood Sonoma design.
Please see Interior Finishing under Advice for more information
Enjoy your Summerwood Copper Creek home studio in any season and remain comfortable by implementing insulation in the floor, walls, and/or roof.
