Popular YardPod Design Features

All YardPods designs are unique. However, there are some popular design features and options you might like or a variation. Here are a few.

Match your home’s style

We are often asked to complement the design, materials, and color of your existing house, or in some cases, to design a building that contrasts with the existing. Share your ideas and photos of building styles that you like and we will make it happen.
