Barndominium Plans
Multi-use post-frame buildings like barndominiums are incredibly effective. Combine work and play, enjoy a nice spacious shop for your weekend toys, or simply utilize the wide open spaces for a light, airy residence.

Structurally Sound Designs
Many people don’t realize that stick-built homes are structurally sound because they’re covered so extensively by building code, but post-frame homes like barndominiums are not. This means the structural integrity of your barndominium depends on whomever builds or designs it. This is a great reason to have a licensed professional like a structural engineer or an architect design your barndo blueprints.


Permit-Ready Drawing Sets
All our barndo floor plans are code-compliant and permit-ready, so that you don’t have any hiccups when you’re ready to pull permits. Our barndo construction documents include:
- Foundation plans
- Floor plans
- Roof truss layouts and framing
- Wall sections and structural detailing
- Design loads for your specific building site
Beautifully Rendered 3D Barndo Models
Every barndo starts as a 3D model, so you can preview your barndominium while it’s still in the planning phase. Our design team adjusts the digital models to match your preferences, so you have “photos” to show off before you even break ground.


Sealed Plans for Barndominiums
Local building departments may require sealed plans for barndos – this means barndominium plans and drawings that have been stamped by a registered design professional. At Michigan Building Design, our barndo floor plans are sealed by a licensed structural engineer.
Ongoing Support Throughout the Build
We know that you may have questions during your build, and we’re here to support you throughout the process. The building inspector has questions about the design? Send them our way; we stand by our design choices and will field these phone calls for you.
