Have you heard of "barndominium"? A barn converted into a condominium is a new trend in home building. Human imagination definitely knows no bounds...
A word barndominium, which denotes a modern residence, consists of two words: kids (in translation barn) and condominium (in translation apartment).
Barndominium from the outside it really looks a bit ancient, and hides inside a lot of comfort. We can build it anew or we are renovating an existing barn.
Interest in the new type of homes appeared as early as the 2000s, and has reached its peak recently. A television show contributed to this Fixer Upper, which is dedicated to home renovation and is run by them Chip and Joanna Gaines. We were able to follow in its third season an amazing barn transformation.
The demand for this type of residence began in Texas, and then spread to the area of the American Midwest. On a social network Pinterest were recorded in the last year 700% growth keyword searches barndominium.
So what are the benefits of unique homes? In comparison with other new constructions, the construction costs will be substantial less money and time. Barndominiums can boast of high energy efficiency, while offering open living space, which is very popular in modern times.
