While some see old barns or buildings as something to be discarded, 34-year-old Tyler Christman sees them as an opportunity to “reclaim history” and create a new chapter for old lumber.
“Even the most derelict buildings we’ve ever done are like time capsules, carrying with them memories of days gone by. Memories of lives lived—a way of life carved out of hard work, toughness, and determination,” he said. “It’s reclaiming history because these barns offer a glimpse into what life was like 200-plus years ago.”
