Our shed home designs
At Stratford ITM, we believe the best homes start with the best designs — practical, flexible, and tailored to your lifestyle. Whether you’re building your first home, downsizing, or creating a rural escape, we help you design a shed home that’s not only functional but feels like home from day one.
Our shed home designs are created with real living in mind — generous spaces, smart layouts, and cost-effective construction, all backed by our expert knowledge of what works in Taranaki and across New Zealand.
We don’t believe in off-the-shelf homes. Every block of land is different, and every customer has their own vision. That’s why all of our designs can be modified — quickly, affordably, and with full guidance from our team.
Our shed home designs aren’t just architecturally attractive — they’re designed to be built efficiently and cost-effectively, using trusted methods and high-quality materials.
Your home is one of the biggest investments you’ll ever make — and it deserves to be designed properly. With Stratford ITM, you get more than materials; you get a partner who’s committed to helping you build smarter, faster, and better.

Don't just take our word for it
Excellent service. We live around 30 mins from town, and wanted some 6 metre lengths of timber. Home delivery was the best option. Dale priced out our email enquiry, raised a cash sale invoice and responded same day, and the team was able to get our order on a truck for next day delivery. Thanks to Guy for a prompt and tidy delivery.
