The micro Wing Span layout features a central structure with a lofted mezzanine, maximizing vertical space while maintaining an efficient footprint. Beneath the loft, 9-foot ceilings provide a comfortable and open main floor living area, while the upper level creates additional usable space without increasing the building’s footprint. Designed for off-grid living, this project supports a self-sufficient lifestyle while remaining fully integrated into its natural surroundings. Tucked into a quiet forest hideaway, this barndominium offers a true escape—where the structure becomes part of the landscape, and nature is the main feature.
