Transitions in open floor plans
As homeowners seek more open floor plans, interior doors are evolving. Barn doors meet homeowners’ desire for fluid room flows by seamlessly connecting adjacent rooms, allowing the flexibility to close spaces off or join them.
The rolling feature of barn doors creates a fresh look in any home. The functionality of a door mounted on a barn track allows homeowners to control the degree to which spaces are opened or closed. Unlike conventional hinge-mounted doors, barn doors open previously divided rooms with an air of intentionality.
Showcasing style and personality
Like a distinctive piece of art in the home, the right interior door can showcase a homeowner’s style and personality. An unexpected door style creates a great discussion point when entertaining friends and family. Is your home lacking a statement piece that inspires creativity and sparks conversation? You may find that a barn door is a simple solution to this problem with its eye-catching rolling feature.
Adaptable to changing style trends
Do you ever worry that the sweater you bought last week will be out of style in a year or two? Are you a trend skeptic since the bell-bottom era? (If those can go out of style, anything can, right?) These farmyard-meets-indoors statement pieces have actually been around for over a decade. Today you’ll find barn doors with a modern, sleek look, rustic wood paneling or even made with a chalkboard.
Barn doors are available from several companies in Houston, TX. Brown Interiors offers rustic-style barn doors, as well as sleek, contemporary doors that can be mounted on barn track hardware.
Why now?
Adding a barn door while you’re stuck inside for the cold months makes an immediate visual difference in your home and can provide a scenic backdrop for holiday photos.
