Studio Cabin 10 x 16

Studio Cabin 10 x 16

A dark brown 10 x 16 studio cabin with white trim combines a traditional rustic aesthetic with a clean, modern contrast. This 160-square-foot structure is often used as a backyard office, guest suite, or personal retreat. 

Exterior Characteristics

• Color Palette: The primary siding is a rich, dark brown—often achieved via chestnut brown urethane stain or deep chocolate paint. The white trim highlights the roofline, window frames, and door casing, providing a sharp "pop" against the dark wood.
• Roofing: Usually features a dark gable or mono-slope roof, with materials ranging from lifetime architectural shingles in dark gray to durable metal panels.
• Windows & Doors: A common setup includes a 9-lite entry door or double wood doors with diamond plate kick panels. Windows are typically vinyl-insulated, often featuring white grids to match the trim.
• Structure: Built on a heavy-duty floor system with 2x6 pressure-treated floor joists and 3/4" tongue-and-groove flooring to ensure stability. 

Interior Design Potential

• Open Floor Plan: The 10x16 footprint is ideal for an open-concept layout.
• Finishes: Interiors often feature shiplap walls or natural pine for a warm feel, frequently paired with vinyl plank flooring like "Dove Tail Oak".
• Comfort Features: Many studio cabins come pre-wired for electricity and are fully insulated (spray foam or fiberglass) to allow for year-round use.
• Space Optimization: Some models include a loft area for storage or a secondary sleeping space.
