The Barn is the most-ordered building in the line, and the reason is vertical space. The gambrel roof shape that makes it look like a barn is doing structural work — it lifts the sidewalls of the loft high enough that the space above is genuinely usable rather than a crawl.
Worth knowing
If you are storing anything seasonal — decorations, camping gear, off-season furniture — the loft is where it goes, and it frees the entire floor for the things you actually reach for weekly. Available with single or double doors, and with the widest size range in the lineup.
