The owner of this building is an enthusiast of traditional Viking culture. They wanted a building in the style of a traditional longhouse and will use the building as a personal building. They also host traditional gatherings at the site.
Post frame adapted well to this structure; the builder was able to be cost effective on the foundation as well as cover all exposed concrete and steel brackets so only wood is visible.
