The simplest is to build it just like a standard garden shed.

Then install individual nest boxes, and a roost.

they need a place to eat (feed box), drink (font), lay eggs (nesting box) and sleep (roosts). and a door to get in and out. the door usually open up to a chicken wire run. the coop can be large enough for people to walk in and out, or small enough for them only. visit a tractor supply and look at theirs for ideas. you may want to separate the rooster tho.
You might find some ideas here and here, as well.
