A loft into a tower silo

posted by Manuel Gaudichon on September 8, 20091 comment

If you play the game of who will succeed to create a loft in the most unlikely place, I think the future owner of this Tower silo has a great chance to be the winner, isn’t it ? Imagine, this old agricultural cooperative with a monumental architecture, developing a floor area of 400 squared meters, converted into a beautiful loft with impressive volume. Before living in such a lovely place, there is a lot of work to do, but loft addicts really enjoy this kind of challenge, no ?

Tower of Terror ? No, only a Tower silo. A totally atypical building to convert into a unique loft.

Breathtaking architecture for this building based on agricultural land of 1240m2 surrounded by a river. Inside, you are astounded while facing these monumental pillars and the stairs that appear to guide you through a maze. Nonnorm. Neither more nor less.

  • It’s a real shame that modern planning laws would refuse this kind of land use in the modern world. The factory surrounded by small terraced community paints a picture of a yesteryear gone by, probably never to return.
