FUNCTIONAL LAYOUT:
The building has a simple and clear functional layout. In the entrance zone, there is a convenient vestibule connected to the garage. On the ground floor, in the western part of the building, there is a sleeping area with a bathroom and stairs to the attic, under which a comfortable wardrobe is located. On the southeast side, the kitchen and dining room are located, connected to the living room, all opening up to the garden – the southern part of the plot – through large sliding glass panels. The living room is also open up to the full height, reaching the roof structure. On the attic, there are two rooms and a bathroom. The attic area offers great possibilities for arrangement and division (e.g., by reducing the elevated area of the living room, an additional room can be created in the attic). A detailed description of the functions can be found here.
Also, take a look at a tour of BarnHouse M presented by Kuba Jankowski from the “Pomysł na Dom” (Idea for a Home) program.
The legendary, first model Modern Barn, where it all began. On our blog, you will find a report on the construction of this barn from the initial sketches to the finishing stage. You can see our bills because we publish them regularly every year, and they hover around 0 PLN :). Incredibly simple and incredibly functional! This Barn offers an excellent cost-to-space ratio and provides a great value in return. The open living space with large windows is truly impressive. Thanks to the absence of rooms above the living area, it opens up to the roof truss, creating a spacious atmosphere in the house. However, if more space is needed, additional rooms on the upper floor can be easily adapted. A glass corridor leads to the living area, offering guests a view of the garden as soon as they step out of the vestibule. The Barn has also been featured in several film productions for Canal+ and Telewizja WP. We could talk about this Barn for hours – after all, we live in it ourselves!
BUILDING STANDARD AND CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY
The building was designed in an energy-efficient standard compliant with the Technical Conditions of 2021, featuring underfloor heating through an air heat pump and mechanical ventilation with heat recovery.
WALLS: Double-layered – cellular concrete blocks + polystyrene
FAÇADE: Render + wooden cladding
CEILING: Precast reinforced concrete beam and block flooring
STAIRS: System-built
ROOF: Ceramic or cement roof tiles
ENERGY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
EU = 34.9 kWh/(m2/year) – annual primary energy use indicator EK = 22.9 kWh/(m2/year) – annual final energy use indicator EP = 68.7 kWh/(m2/year) – annual primary energy demand indicator
BUILDING DESIGN:
A simple two-story rectangular residential house with a symmetrical gable roof inclined at a 45° angle (ridge perpendicular to the access road). The design is compliant with the local zoning plan, featuring a symmetrical gable roof. A garage volume was added to the building on the entrance side (it can exist independently). The simplicity of the layout and construction makes the house straightforward and cost-effective to build. The façade of the building is modern and minimalist, with a natural tone – white combined with warm natural wood. There is an option to adapt the materials to match the local context. Urbanistically, the building suits a plot with access from the west or east, with a mirrored version available.
MINIMAL DIMENSIONS OF THE PLOT:
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.

Rewelacyjny, jak dla mnie najlepszy projekt. Świetny stosunek funkcjonalności do metrażu, do tego wygląda bardzo nowocześnie.
