Broken Back Salt Box Series

The Broken-Back Salt Box is a barn with a symmetrical main barn section with a shed attached to an eave wall. The main barn has a steeper roof than the attached shed roof has. This gives it the appearance of a broken back. The Broken-Back Salty is a structure with a loft or a second story on the front portion of the building, and a single story toward the rear in the shed portion. The Broken-Back Salt Box can be either a single story barn or a two story barn.

Broken-Back Salt Box / 1-1/2 or 2 story / 26′-48′ depths
The Broken Back Salty can be set-up with a cathedral ceiling, a simple loft, or a livable second floor. Access to the second floor varies with size from a simple ladder, pull down stairs, or a full set of hearty hemlock built in stairs

The Smithy is our 1-story version of the Broken Back Salt Box that was originally a workplace for blacksmiths.
