A Smarter Way to Work and Store: The 20×10 Flex Office/Storage Building

January 15, 2026

Designed With Purpose: One Building, Two Distinct Uses

Finding a building that truly balances workspace and storage can be surprisingly difficult. Traditional construction is costly and time‑consuming, while most pre‑built options force you to choose between one function or the other.


That challenge is exactly what inspired us to design a 20×10 multi‑use building. It’s a solution‑driven design that meets a real need in the market. This building was created for customers who need functional separation, flexibility, and long‑term durability, all in one footprint.


This structure is intentionally divided to support two different functions under one roof.

One side is designed to serve as an office, workshop, or hobby space. While the interior is unfinished, it includes a full 6'8" residential‑style door and a window, creating a bright, welcoming entry point and giving owners the flexibility to finish the space exactly how they want. This approach allows customers to customize the interior to their specific needs—whether that’s a simple workspace, a project room, or a more refined office environment.


The other side provides secure, durable storage for equipment, tools, inventory, or personal belongings—keeping work and storage clearly defined and organized.

This intentional layout makes the building incredibly versatile while keeping the footprint efficient.


A Unique Solution for Businesses

For small businesses, contractors, and growing operations, it’s often difficult to find a building that supports both day‑to‑day work and secure storage without investing in costly construction or leasing additional space.


Our 20×10 Flex Office/Storage design offers a practical alternative:

  • On‑site workspace and storage in one structure
  • A flexible office or work area that can be finished to your needs
  • Secure storage for tools, materials, or inventory
  • No long construction timelines or disruption


It’s an ideal solution for businesses that want to keep operations centralized, organized, and efficient—while owning a long‑term asset on their own property.


Equally Valuable for Homeowners

This building isn’t just for businesses. Homeowners are increasingly looking for backyard structures that offer more than basic storage—and that’s where this design really stands out. This multi‑use building works beautifully on your property as:

  • A workshop with separate storage
  • A hobby or craft space with room for tools and supplies
  • A backyard office paired with seasonal or equipment storage
  • A flexible upgrade that grows with your needs


By leaving the workspace unfinished, homeowners have the freedom to personalize the space without paying for features they don’t need.


Built to Fill a Gap—Not Follow a Template

What makes this building truly unique is that it wasn’t designed to fit a standard category. It was created to fill a gap in the market—for customers who need a dual‑purpose structure but struggle to find one that’s practical, durable, and affordable.


At Synergy, innovation isn’t about adding complexity—it’s about listening to real needs and creating smart solutions. Our 20×10 Flex Office/Storage building reflects that mindset by offering flexibility, function, and customization in a way few buildings do.
