This is more of a general question, but I will ge an example of what I'm thinking of at the moment at the end. Does anyone know of a source of "pre-engineered designs", like plans for making sheds, small garden bridges, wooden framed greenhouses and other constructions that have actually been...

Thank you everyone for your reply's, the different viewpoints have helped a lot. Apologies for the slow response. To fill in the missing info from me, I would be using this as my main workplace, so most days of the week and using it for hobby time on off days too. So I don't think I will suffer...

Has anyone done underfloor heating in their workshop? I'm currently planning a build for when we move, my old workshop was a large one car garage size space on a small industrial estate (thats sadly been bulldozed to make deliveroo kitchens).

Kind of, but bigger and more rustic. Ideally I don't want to paint it as it would be a bit out of place. Is there any particular wood stain you would recommend?
