The 'Frankenshed' is an updated backyard shed that received ample repairs and upgrades by Archie Proudfoot to make it a true sight to admire. The shed started off as a standard one that had fallen into disrepair and was renovated by Proudfoot using a series of recycled materials. The end result is an elevated backyard oasis that's covered on the interior with a series of chapel-inspired artwork done by Proudfoot himself to give it a truly artistic appearance.
The 'Frankenshed' is the winner of the 2023 Cuprinol Shed of the Year and was spoke on by Proudfoot who said, "What started as a bored attempt to save a rotten shed turned into the most elaborate and enjoyable piece of artwork I’ve ever created. The Frankenshed is now a beautiful place to escape and enjoy an afternoon sketching, writing, tinkering or potting plants for the garden."
