The layout of our back yard really only lends to them being next to each other on one side (with one in the back corner). The back yard is enclosed with a 7' fence, with neighbors to the side and rear.

It would be great to build a simple 3D model of the shed in Sketchup and merge it into a GoogleEarth model of our yard.
don't over think it on the design. Its a shed, so the design shouldn't compete with the house for attention. Simple with a few details that matches the house. I think that should be it. Use colors to make a little more connection between the two. No matching roof lines and such.
