Text description provided by the architects. The project consists of a small wooden barn for storing bales and carrying out agricultural work that requires protection from the elements. It addresses a basic agricultural necessity, which is generally solved by installing a prefabricated metal shed. Emerging among the landscape of fields, its design strategies are targeted towards keeping the grass in optimal storage conditions by means of ventilation solutions, sunlight control, and humidity reduction. We challenged ourselves to resolve the nave with radiata pine pieces available on the market, using their full length and aiming to waste as little material as possible; no laminates or special parts were used.
