That looks really wide open and airy. I'm in New Orleans and have been pondering my coop design for a while now... seeing this, I wonder if I need an enclosed part at all, aside from nest boxes.

How are you planning to enclose it come wintertime?
 
Looks nice! The only thing I would be leary about is the use of chicken wire... it isnt strong enough and the holes are two big... a raccoon will get right through it. Hardware cloth would be much safer. I had a raccoon or weasel get through a 1 inch hole and kill my quail so 1/2" would be recommended.
