OTTO'S DESIGN & CONTRACTING
Detached Multi-Car Garages
otto's contracting
Detached garages are ideal when you need extra space without altering your main home’s footprint. Whether you’re housing multiple vehicles, storing recreational gear, or adding a workshop, a detached structure gives you freedom, flexibility, and privacy. With the right design, it becomes more than just a garage—it becomes a seamless part of your property that enhances both form and function.
At Otto’s Contracting, we see detached garages as an opportunity to elevate your entire outdoor layout. We’ll help you design a structure that complements your home’s architecture, adds visual appeal, and fits your needs now and in the future. From multi-bay layouts and oversized doors to custom roofing and exterior materials, we take care of every detail. The result is a fully customized space that looks great, works hard, and adds long-term value to your property.
Garage with Finished Living Space

Carriage-style garages bring charm and practicality together in one smart build. These multi-use structures offer traditional garage space on the lower level with a fully finished apartment, studio, or guest suite above. Whether you’re housing extended family, working from home, or creating a rental opportunity, this style offers flexibility without sacrificing style or space.
At Otto’s Contracting, we love the versatility of carriage house designs. We’ll work with you to map out a functional layout that reflects your vision—whether that means a modern studio with clean lines or a cozy retreat with architectural character. Every element—from stair access and natural light to HVAC and plumbing—is designed for year-round comfort and convenience. It’s a great way to expand your living space while adding sophistication and resale appeal.
Workshop & Hobby Garages

For homeowners who need more than just storage, workshop garages provide the perfect space to pursue hands-on work, creative hobbies, or even a small business. With smart layouts and custom upgrades like built-in workbenches, task lighting, and heavy-duty floors, these garages are built to work just as hard as you do.
At Otto’s Contracting, we take pride in designing workshop garages that are as durable as they are personal. Whether you’re a woodworker, a mechanic, or a weekend DIYer, we’ll help you configure the space to match your tools, workflow, and goals. We focus on function first—then layer in clean design and finish options that elevate the experience. The result is a tailored workspace that’s efficient, comfortable, and built for whatever you’re passionate about.
Luxury Showcase Garages

When your car collection deserves more than a basic garage, a luxury showcase design makes a bold statement. These high-end garages focus on aesthetics and atmosphere—think polished floors, glass-paneled doors, mood lighting, and climate control. It’s the perfect blend of style and storage, built for serious enthusiasts who want their vehicles to shine.
At Otto’s Contracting, we treat these garages more like custom showrooms. Our team works closely with you to create a space that reflects your personality and showcases your vehicles in the best light—literally. From sleek finishes to integrated smart systems, every detail is considered with precision. Whether it’s your weekend ride or a collector’s dream, we’ll help you house it in a space that feels just as extraordinary.
Attached Garage Additions

Attached garages are all about seamless integration. By expanding directly from your home, they offer easy access, added convenience, and a cohesive look that blends beautifully with your existing layout. Whether you need more room for vehicles, storage, or even a mudroom entry, this type of garage is a smart, functional addition to any property.
At Otto’s Contracting, we focus on making attached garages feel like they’ve always been part of your home. We pay close attention to architectural style, rooflines, siding, and proportions—ensuring the new addition complements your original structure perfectly. From practical storage solutions to stylish finishes, we’ll build a garage that works as hard as it looks good. The result is a clean, connected space that adds comfort, convenience, and value to your everyday life.
