FUNCTIONAL LAYOUT:
Stodoła L Compact + is an alternative version of our smallest Stodoła L variant. In a compact form, the building manages to accommodate a highly functional layout with several rooms. The house features a simple, clear functional arrangement with entry from the gable wall side. In the entrance area, there is a convenient vestibule connected through a utility room to a double garage. The entire layout is planned along one communication axis, ending in a large, spacious living room with extensive glazing providing a connection to the plot and the terrace. In the first part of the house, there is a room with a wardrobe. In the central part of the plan, there is a pantry and a bathroom. At the end of the building, there is an open kitchen connected to the dining area and the living room, with exposed stairs to the attic in this space. Above the relaxation area, the space is open to full height – up to the roof construction. The glass facade, opening up the view to the plot, is divided into two parts. This allows for the installation of facade blinds on the lower part. The extended roof over the upper part of the facade limits the penetration of sunlight and creates a canopy over the terrace. Enclosing the terrace also provides privacy in case of a short distance to the side boundaries of the plot and neighboring buildings and protects against the wind.
From the communication corridor, stairs (open to the living room) lead to the attic. The attic has 3 rooms and one bathroom. The room on the front side has a window in the gable wall of the building, while the bedroom at the other end of the corridor is illuminated by part of the glass facade. There is a roof window in the bathroom. There is the possibility of easily closing the void in the living room and obtaining a fourth room.
Functionally, it is possible to forego the garage structure, leaving only the building in its simple, compact form. The building can serve as a residence or be successfully used as a weekend retreat or rental property.
The alternative version of the smallest project from the Barn House L family. In this compact building, we managed to incorporate a highly functional layout. Small in size, yet lacking nothing! In the Barn House L Compact+ project, we meticulously placed all the necessary features down to the centimeter. The result is a home designed in such a way that its small dimensions pose no obstacle to comfortable use. Its simple form houses up to four bedrooms! A garage can be added to the residential building in such a way that entry into the apartment is possible through a vestibule. Our garage design accommodates two cars, but it’s extremely easy to convert it into a single-space garage or even completely forego it.
On the ground floor, you’ll find the master bedroom, a bathroom, a pantry, and a comfortable living room with a kitchenette. The open ceiling above the living area visually enlarges the space and creates a sense of spaciousness. Upstairs, three bedrooms share a common bathroom. Access to them is from the landing, which offers a great view of the living room and impressive glazing. However, if maximizing space is a priority, the void can be converted into another room instead!
STANDARD BUILDING AND CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY
The building has been designed in an energy-efficient standard compliant with the 2021 Technical Conditions – underfloor heating via an air source heat pump, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery.
MASONRY WALLS: Two-layered – aerated concrete block + mineral wool, silicate partition walls
ELEVATION: White plaster, light wooden cladding, metal sheeting, dark plaster
CEILING: Monolithic reinforced concrete
STAIRS: Wooden or reinforced concrete system stairs
ROOF: Ceramic or concrete roof tiles
Additionally, the simple, gable roof allows for the installation of a photovoltaic system, with the potential for up to 34 panels on one roof plane, generating approximately 11 kW of power. The visualizations showcase 24 panels generating around 8 kW of power.
BUILDING SHAPE:
A compact, simple two-story building in the style of a modern barn, with a rectangular footprint, covered by a symmetrical gable roof with a 45° pitch. An attached garage structure with a flat roof has been added to the main building volume from the entrance side, which can be easily omitted structurally. The building is designed with a unified and minimalist aesthetic. A significant feature is the large, glass facade illuminating the living area with an extended roof on the rear gable wall side. The facade is divided into two parts, allowing for the installation of facade blinds on the lower portion. The extended roof over the upper part limits solar radiation penetration and forms a canopy over the terrace.
The building features a very simple structural layout based on three axes, a simple gable roof, and a concrete ceiling. This makes the construction process easy and cost-effective.
The modern facade is finished with white plaster, with light burnt wood accents. The burning technique helps protect the wood from external weather conditions. The building can also be executed in an “urban” version, with a white plaster finish. Materials can be adjusted to match the local context or the individual preferences of the investor.
The base design is tailored to plots with a view from the rear gable wall side. Various variants are presented below. Urbanistically, the building fits best on plots with entrances from the west, east, or north, positioning the longer side of the building towards the south, which is favorable for photovoltaic installation.
MINIMUM PLOT DIMENSIONS:
The building can be situated in several variants. The basic variant is at the entrance from the west and north sides (Variant 1). There is a possibility to eliminate the garage, obtaining a simple, minimalist form (Variant 2, possible to implement as changes to the basic variant). Variant 3 involves changing the location of the garage to the side wall of the building, dedicated to plots that are wide but relatively short. Depending on the size of the plot, there is also the possibility to forego the garage or relocate it to the side wall of the building in the project.
The drawing shows the minimum distances from the property boundary according to Polish building regulations. In your region, these distances may be different.
However, it is possible to request a change in technology.
If you are interested in changing technology – contact us by e-mail.
FRAME BARN HOUSE
We have the ability to easily change the construction of the house to either steel or wood frame technology.
Benefits of frame technology:
- wooden frameworks are more resistant to shocks and seismic forces than traditional masonry structures
- a more environmentally friendly solution
- shorter construction time, shorter working hours for workers
PREFABRICATED BARN HOUSE
Barn Houses Ideas collaborate with a company that specializes in manufacturing building components, like: ceilings, walls, roof, etc.- in factories and then transporting and assembling them on site.
The technology allows for a construction time reduction by half. You are able to build your barn house in 4-5 months.
Prefabricated construction is about 15-25% more expensive than comprehensive traditional construction.
What do you gain in return? Among other things:
- an ecological house made of natural materials
- quick realization of the house even in 4-5 months, and thus also immunity to unstable prices on the market
- minimal involvement in the construction – without the restriction of teams and materi
greater usable area of the building due to the smaller thickness of the walls - a house situated on a foundation slab
- guidance and advice from an experienced team
- noticeably better quality and durability of individual components.

Plan version

Standard Plan

Mirrored Plan
Plots have different shapes and entrances from different sides. To make it easier for you to adapt our warehouse plan to your plot of land, we offer you a choice between two versions of the warehouse plan: the standard plan and the mirror plan.
The most important factor in choosing between the two is the direction of the world from which the entrance is located. This determines which version of the plan will fit the most for your plot.
In the ‘Plot’ section of the product page, we provide a detailed description of our recommended entrance location. Take a look at this information and choose the variant that best suits your plot.
In addition to the option to change the building technology and construction, described in the “Construction Options” tab for each project, it is also possible to introduce additional modifications. We handle both minor changes and more advanced ones, such as modifing the layout of rooms in the house or changing the appearance of the facade.
If you are interested or have any questions regarding this, please contact us.
Describe in an email the modifications you are interested in, and we will price them individually.

The Barn House Idea is not just a blog and ready-made projects; it’s a way of thinking about construction, about choices and compromises to achieve the desired goal with full satisfaction. The Barn Project is about minimalism, functionality, simplicity, and energy efficiency, all guided by construction economics.
Our Barn House M has been inhabited for 6 years now. We didn’t expect that our construction and design efforts, which we document on the blog and through social media, would create a community around this idea. It could be said that The Barn Project is more than just projects; it’s also a forum for exchanging opinions and experiences. It’s a community that you can also be a part of.
