Hybrid Method Barn Restoration
Champaign, IL
A purist’s approach is not always the best fit for a project. Timber framing and modern framing methods were combined to create a unique, hybrid solution to this barn restoration. Timbers, gable vents, floor boards, and siding were replaced, and a new stairwell and guard rails were constructed. And what’s behind the moon door? A composting toilet, of course!
