? THE HANDY HACKS

This 100-Year-Old Silo Looks Abandoned - Wait Until You See the Inside

 


3. Adding a Curved Stairway Inside

Inside the silo, a beautifully crafted spiral staircase became the centerpiece. It was made from reclaimed wood and sturdy metal - materials that blend rustic charm with modern industrial style. The staircase provides access to the upper floors and adds a sense of elegance to the round space.

4. Designing a Warm, Inviting Upstairs

Warm wood paneling now lines the walls, while the exposed stone adds authenticity. The top floor features a comfortable seating area with a panoramic view, thanks to the custom windows. Plush cushions and a circular arrangement make it an inviting space for relaxing with a book or chatting with friends. The brothers wanted every corner to feel warm and welcoming, not cold or industrial.

 

5. Turning the Lower Level into a Gathering Spot

The lower level of the silo was transformed into a stylish bar and lounge. It has a full bar counter, a variety of spirits, and a wood-burning stove. This space is perfect for hosting guests - a place to gather on cold Wisconsin evenings. Modern amenities meet historic charm here without feeling out of place.
