Designed in accordance to the International Llama Association’s housing guidelines, this multipurpose pole barn provides generous equine shelter, training, and tool storage for a local llama farm.

Each resident llama has a customizable stall with sliding gates that allow them to socialize with neighbors or meander outdoors on an individual basis.

A large covered space between the cozy llama stalls allows training to continue year-round. Support spaces include a workshop, medicine and tack rooms, and bath / laundry facilities for workers.

Skylights provide natural light, and large barn doors and louvers facilitate cross-ventilation.
