Hobby Barns Geared for Changing Interests – His and Hers

How good do hobby barns sound to you after these few weeks at home? Are you wishing you had a place for your woodworking, iron works, or other tinkering? Would you rather be quilting or starting sprouts for a vegetable or a flower garden? These hobbies take extra space and it is so nice to have a secure place to keep creative works in progress. Or store that extra TP!

Ponder the idea of adding a pole building to your property. Its post-frame construction gives you large open interior spans. Pole buildings allow for future interior redesigns easier than traditional builds. So, they accommodate changing interests over the decades.

Dual Purpose Designs for Hobby Barns

Post-frame hobby barns house a variety of hobbies under one roof. Go for the His and Hers idea—or dual purposes. You could appreciate weaving but he has always wanted to tinker on his old Thunderbird. You want to hang out with a local band but she likes to refinish antiques. Add an extra boat garage if you like. Whatever the combination of hobbies your family pursues, you can create spaces for them with a large or small pole barn. And switch out details over time as needed.

Metal and Steel Buildings

Metal and steel buildings offer the most reliable barn structures. Built to last and guaranteed with warranties, these barns are perfect for the Colorado lifestyle. Your valuables and long hours of dedication to your hobby will be best protected.

Best Designs for You

In addition, the best designs can blend into your residential neighborhood. In Douglas County we have many subdivisions with large lots and building restrictions. Our architect and designer teams will investigate covenants. If your home is stucco, your hobby barn could have stucco accents; or the barn could have the same wood or stone accents as the main house.

Your individual layout will be determined by the spaces you need. The options increase by the size of the building. Small buildings could give you additional loft space or places to store canoes and kayaks if the roof pitch is increased. Rooms can serve two purposes by designing wall storage for tools and materials. The positioning of doors and windows, the addition of outdoor living spaces, added upgrades such as a bathroom or snack room will be added to plans by some owners.
