Our Favourite Barn Conversion Ideas

When it comes to renovations, there is nothing quite as impressive as a barn conversion. For people across the UK, it is a dream to move into a stunning barn conversion with their loved ones. This type of project is one of our favourites to work on, especially with some of the beautiful results we can produce. In this blog we are going to talk about just some of our favourite unique ideas for barn conversions.

Eco friendly
In the current climate, it is more popular than ever to find ways to benefit the environment. Having large windows installed is one fantastic way to use natural sunlight to its full potential, reducing your use of electricity. Another great idea for achieving this is a glass floor walkway connecting upstairs rooms, drawing in light from all directions. Other energy saving solutions could include the use of a ground source heat pump or woodburning stove.

Continental Styles
Whilst barn conversions are traditionally a very British form of renovation, you can take some amazing inspiration from the way other countries build them. Classic barn styles from nations such as France, Holland, Germany and Italy are incredibly stylish. This could add a unique twist which sets your barn conversion apart from the rest.

Ultra-Modern
With a modern barn conversion, you can have great fun with mixing old and new, to produce a head turning aesthetic. We would recommend using a combination of wood and glass throughout the property to achieve this. You can also make brilliant use of space by including a large centrepiece art feature such as an abstract statue or lighting fixture.
