Timeless Barn Company of Frankfort, Indiana, adapts, reclaims, and re-erects vintage Midwestern timber-frame barns as dwellings, additions, studios, wineries, and event buildings. Founded in 2001 after Dean Smith dismantled a barn timber by timber and rebuilt it as a house, the company has more than twenty-five years of experience working with pre-Civil War and nineteenth-century frames, traditional joinery, and hand-hewn timbers. Complete frames can be restored, modified, packaged, and relocated, while salvaged material is reused for flooring, original wall board, box-beam wraps, shelving, and one-of-a-kind fireplace mantels. Colonial Saltbox home packages and custom residential and commercial timber framing extend the same material language to projects that do not begin with a standing barn. The work is adaptive reuse by relocation rather than in-place barn stabilization.
