Concept art done in sketchup and then textured for a client.
Core Features of the Design:
The SketchUp model provides a highly detailed, interactive 3D representation of the coop.
Enables clients to visualize the design from multiple angles, including interior and exterior views.
Functional Design Layout:
Optimized zones for roosting, nesting, and feeding, ensuring chicken comfort and easy maintenance.
Built-in access points such as hinged doors and sliding trays for cleaning and egg collection.
Modern Aesthetics with Natural Touches:
The coop incorporates contemporary materials like treated wood and galvanized metal, with optional accents like painted trim or carved details.
A sloped roof design not only adds visual appeal but also aids in water drainage.
Customizable Features:
Modular design elements allow for resizing or the addition of components like an extended run or storage area.
Optional integrations include solar-powered lighting or a ventilation fan.
Eco-Conscious Design Options:
Space for a green roof or rainwater collection system encourages sustainability.
Use of locally sourced, eco-friendly materials for an environmentally responsible structure.
Adaptable for Various Themes:
Style options include “rustic barn,” “urban modern,” or “storybook garden,” depending on the client’s preferences.
Colors and materials can be swapped in SketchUp to match a property’s existing aesthetic.
That is a really cute design! Though I think people that have chicken coops with ramps also have much smarter chickens than I do XD We have a nesting box that has a ramp up (not our design, we inherited it with the house, I would have done it very differently) and the adult chickens will often just jump up (not that high for them) but any chicks that we've had just run around the bottom like idiots panicking because they can't get up. Sometimes they learn how to use the ramp and more often their mum just ends up jumping down and roosting on the floor with them.
