Looking for Shipping Container Barn Plans

I am looking for plans to build a pole type barn with one or two shipping containers incorporated in. I have seen too types while driving through the country but never had the type to stop and take photos. I remember one had two shipping containers on each side with open part with peaked roof over the center. the other had one shipping container in the center with peaked roof over and lean to on each side. Each one was painted solid and first glace looked like a regular barn. I really want it to look like barn and not look. Pics or plans would be appreciated.

Someone had posted a pic of some on here before. It was two containers with a isle going down the center. Rafters/trusses were made to cover the width of the two containers and the center isle. Then finished roofing in with shingles. It was painted to look like a real barn. I hope to make one one day.
