Rustic Vintage Transformed Barns

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Lukas Lenherr Architektur Designs a New Wooden Barn in Mannedorf

— January 31, 2023 — Art & Design
Swiss architecture studio Lukas Lenherr Architektur introduces a new 1850 barn that is located in Mannedorf, Switzerland. The firm transforms the space into a new and intricate wooden structure from the preexisting space. The entire space is defined by six wooden frames and is accompanied by a series of slabs that create the entire interior of the building.

The main section of the barn was maintained and new spaces are referenced by the sightlines and openings that come together for a seamless and fluid design language. The six aforementioned frames were created using spruce and applied as a main source of support for the old barn during the construction process. Once it was complete, the name of the space was then known as 'Six Frames.'

Trend Themes
1. Rustic Chic Architecture - There is an opportunity for architects and designers to create modern spaces while maintaining a rustic feel by using natural materials and incorporating traditional design elements.
2. Reuse of Historical Buildings - The trend of repurposing historical buildings provides an opportunity to preserve architectural heritage while creating new, functional spaces that meet the needs of modern society.
3. Minimalist Design - The use of fewer and simpler elements, such as the six wooden frames in this barn, can lead to unique and visually striking designs that are also cost-effective and environmentally friendly.
Industry Implications
1. Architecture - There is an opportunity for architects and designers to rethink design and construction methods with a focus on sustainability and preserving historical structures.
2. Real Estate - As more developers turn to adaptive reuse projects, there is an opportunity for real estate professionals to invest in and repurpose historic buildings for new uses.
3. Construction - The growing interest in sustainable architecture and building techniques presents an opportunity for companies to develop innovative and eco-friendly construction methods and materials.
