Barndominium Plans: The Best Barndominium Designs of 2024
Barndominium floor plans, also known as “Barndos” and Shophouse plans, also known as “Shouse” have become the most popular architectural design since the farmhouse movement. Barndominiums are now in more demand than tiny houses and farmhouse plans combined.
Barndominium plans are popular because they can be built using several different building methods. Traditionally barndo’s have been built using metal building kits but recently pole barn and conventional framing methods have become more popular. Stick-framing is more economical than steel framed.

More Barndo Information
A barndominium is a style of architecture that draws inspiration from traditional barns. While there are different styles of barndominiums the primary design features are open floor plans, vaulted ceilings, sliding barn doors and simple gable roofs.
Barndominiums also known as “barndos” have similar design features to the shophouse or “shouse” designs. An shouse is a style of architecture that includes a shop or larger garage within the living space of the home. Shophouses are popular with families that have a home business or that have an RV or need multiple garage spaces.

Barndominium CAD Files
We sell CAD files for $750 and provide you and your architect or engineer with a one-time build license. In some cases your local building department may require your barndominium plans to have an engineer stamp. In this case you will need to hire a local engineer which will need our CAD files to make any required changes.
Foundation and Building Methods
Our plans are designed as conventional wood framing 16″ O.C. We can modify our plans for post frame and steel if needed. All BuildMax plans are designed on a monolithic slab foundation but can be modified for a crawl space or basement.
