It is said that “form follows function” to create extraordinary architecture, but when it comes Today's Barns Serve Many Functions at White Horse Construction to today’s barns there is far more than meets the eye. Beyond the rectangular box- es of four walls and a roof lies history and imagination. Although we sometimes view barns according to their function; i.e. housing livestock, cattle and horses, equipment, fod- der, and often grain, there is far more that goes into a good barn. Today’s barns can serve many more functions than those mentioned, as they are used for residences, social gatherings, sporting events, wedding venues, restaurants, etc. The barns we see today, that have lasted two centuries or more, are ones that were built well, leaving their coun- terparts literally in the dust; they are no longer around to compare. We are not much differ- ent from our ancestors of 200 plus years ago; we can choose to build a barn to last for our lifetime only, or for generations to come. Simeon Stoltzfus of White Horse Construction says it this way: “When deciding on the design and method used to build a new barn of today, decide who you are building for; will your barn be a structure for the future to be handed down to subsequent generations, an investment add- ing to your estate and legacy, a time capsule for the future?” When imagining your next barn, choose value over expedi- ency, legacy over economy, and extraordinary for the ordinary.
