Have You Noticed Minimalist Trends in Pole Barn Design?
You may perceive the minimalist pole barn designs in Central Colorado. They support both modern farming operations and the back-to-earth self-sufficient trends. At Lester Buildings, the team noticed more personalized pole barns with subdued colors and simple form. Their customers might be opting for the currently popular industrial or urban chic look.
Pole Barn Design, Personalized for You

Whatever the reasons, the large outbuildings are very functional. Harmonizing with the natural surroundings, they feature striking aesthetics although the purposes of the buildings vary. Inside a pole building, you can find everything from livestock to big RVs to offices and game rooms. The owners decide on all of that, and so can you.
Trending Color Schemes
Designers say that the neutral grays add a sophisticated backdrop that compliments many building styles. Over the past year, Lester Buildings notes those kinds of trends in color schemes. Many of their clients chose muted colors or dramatically contrasting colors. Think Quaker Gray, Pewter Gray, Black, and Snow White. Auto designers have been noticing buyers like these colors, too!
New Modern Materials from Lester Buildings
Several years ago, the engineers and designers at Lester Buildings created an ingenious steel roof panel, the Eclipse Roof System. Today, the Eclipse style has moved onto the building walls. Customers like the vertical board look it gives to large pole barn buildings. and is a popular choice for customers.

The Eclipse panel style serves as more than fashion, however. It allows for stronger and more durable roofs and walls in buildings of all sizes. You’ll find better panels with tighter seams. Eclipse panels also help cut costs by requiring fewer panels.

The collaborative teamwork, decades of firsthand experience, and loyal artisan builders collaborate to meet the challenges of our customers.

Another adjunct to industrial design comes from the use of glass. Take a building, this one with gray brick wainscot. Add large windows trimmed in jet black and the building leaps into the 21st century. Urban chic. And that’s how one customer personalized a big pole barn, turning the ordinary into a stunning, modern design.
