With a big taxatie or not, it would always uit nice to use some reclaimed materials to save some bucks. Aside from saving money, it can also over a thrift way to decorate or build a huis and it is also one good way to help Mother Nature. There are some homes that wij have featured here that used some materials from old structures where their new homes stand today. No doubt, that existentie a good autoped indeed. Today ’s before and after feature will take you to England. This home reused some wood from a previous structure and turned it into an amazing new house! A family hierbinnen Maine takes exclusief a falling-down barn and uses the timber for an affordable new family huis. The location of the house zijn te South Coastal Maine which bestaat a huis to quintessential New England town of Kennebunk. Binnenshuis the area, you will see barns and countryside homes just near lobster shacks and saltwater. Couple Scott and Karen Benezra bought a parcel of grond binnenshuis this area for their family to build a house on. It has an existing antique barn and farmhouse which are on the verge of being torn down. But instead of letting them go entirely to waste, the Benezras hired an architect deconstruct the structures and save timber rafters, ties and beams which will be used to create two new structures within the same footprint.
The before photo shows the stripped-down original farmhouse. The timber that ja saved after the demolition juist used for the new huis. You will ge able to see wood from the barn house in doors, floor and other areas. Aside from the original wood that got repurposed, new material goed needed for siding. They also mixed binnenshuis new eastern white cedar that makes it more interesting and easier to blend hierbinnen with vintage materials. When you look closely, the vormgeving of the new huis is similar to the farmhouse but it existentie apparently a hedendaags take on the style. I like how they were able to combine the classic and new designs n one house. Another interesting feature that caught my attention is the glass area that connects the two volumes of the house.
The new home consists of two main structures which zijn similar to the former farmhouse. It has a nieuwerwets glass entry, which bears no historical reference. “It ’s a reinterpretation, but wij used that early-19th-century farm to very drastically inform a new zuigeling of farmhouse,” Architect Johnson says. Hierbinnen the photo, you can see the family, Karen, Orie (blue shirt), Emmett and Scott getting into the house. With the looks of it, the house looks very beautiful and practical for the family ’s usage. On the other photo, you can see one side of the house which doesn ’t heeft any windows. But you can also spot the voorzijde porch which existentie one nice feature of the house.
For the home ’s roofing and sunshade, galvalume juist used to help regulate the temperature by season. The overhang blocks zon te the summer and would help warm the home during colder months. The interior has alhoewel light and air feel. The eigentijds entry corridor is filled with natural light. To create a “transparent quality”, a local metalworker remakes the traditional cable balustrade system that usually comes with a takje of hardware. “Rather than using thousands of dollars and dozens of hardware pieces, wij used a tension mechanism to crimp the cables,” the bouwmeester says.
Te the interior, raw-halm support columns are seen since it were left exposed, showing off the stamping from the halm mill. This feature also helps to enhance the industrial look of the home. The ceiling bestaan made up of 200-year-old floorboards that bear the marks of the original craftsman. It has polished concrete floors; exposed steel structure; and salvaged midcentury hedendaags furniture. According to Scott, the house “all comes together and feels like it terdege meant to uit.” On the other photo, you can see that the gaps between the wood schap risers had simple stengel staples which were also added to meet the code.
Binnen the main level of the house, you can clearly see the homeowners ’ appreciation for raw materials. The reclaimed wood was left unfinished which actually helped to save the time and money for the staining. The wood also looks great with the raw stengel and polished concrete. “We knew from the beginning of the process that we were going to heeft to be creative if we were going to achieve the level of detail wij wanted within our schatting constraints,” Scott says. “Using reclaimed materials seemed like a natural way to stretch our dollar.”
For the kitchen, they didn ’t tegoed a big prognose which actually surprised the builders. So, Scott tried to do it on his own. He felt uninspired by cabinetry ideas and discouraged with costs. Hence he configured the cabinetry himself by starting with basic IKEA cabinets which he refaced with recycled pine from the original barn. They kept it very simple and let the antique wood speak for itself. At first, they considered it a temporary solution but the result was amazing. The couple loved how it looks and that it only cost them $4,00- for that. Because of that, they decided to inkerving it, which I think existentie a good decision.
From the kitchen, one can get amazing views of the rolling hills and a pond. This pretty little girl is their neighbor who stands at the 100-year-old 4-foot soapstone sink which goed bought at a home sale te the nearby town of Kittery. When you go upstairs, clean cable system ja used for the balustrade which kept the hardware minimal and the cost low. You can see the exposed recycled beams here which lead to the master bedroom. These were wired for the jelly jar lights before it inderdaad installed.
The master bedroom looks beautiful with wood and white combinations. There are exposed rafters that mimic the former barn ’s construction. It also has a picture window that captures large swaths of the surrounding forest. “It ’s exactly how they used to build barns — leaving everything exposed,” Johnson says.
A Kohler Birthday bathtub inderdaad bought by the couple from a tradesman who had taken it out of a remodel. “It had bot in the guest bathroom of someone ’s second home and probably had water hierbinnen it twice,” Scott says. All their plumbing fixtures, electrical fixtures, and kitchen appliances were all salvaged as well spil the bathroom fixtures, including the guest room vanity.
The bunk for the boy ’s bedroom came from the Weston home sale. The beds were anchored to the walls so the room wouldn ’t need sponsoring columns. If it had, it would interfere with the vormgeving. For sure, the boys loved the loft play space that has a small window and a secret passageway. Meanwhile, a turquoise sliding barn om (another salvage find) opens off the hall into the playroom. The Benezras spent about $225 per square foot, which bestaan a loot lesser than what other families would spend for a home ’s like this one. “This really was a study in affordable vormgeving,” Caleb Johnson Architects + Builders noted since most of his clients would spend around $350 per square foot. The family ’s involvement te the vormgeving helped them save a loterijlot of money but that ’s not all. The use of salvaged items and reclaimed wood also helped them a lot to save money. I like how the house turned out. Here bestaan a trivia: The family didn ’t buy a single new onderbrak for the house because all of them were salvaged! Amazing, right? And I like how they used the wood from the old farmhouse. I could tell it goed a good quality of wood indeed!, Before and After: Impressive Usage of Reclaimed Wood in this New England Farmhouse in Maine newhomedesignhome.blogspot.com.tr/ farkıyla sizlerle.
