I came across this and thought it was interesting. 3 old grain silos converted into a B&B in Oregon.

That sure is a unique concept. It would be fun if the architect would have used a round house to go with the silos.

What a creative idea! I would love to be able to go there for a visit to just see what it was like.

I love the look of metal silos. They've done a fabulous job. That's the look we attempted with our farm facility. Our someday elevator shaft is a 4-story square silo of sorts and on the opposing side we have a round addition that is also four-stories tall. Pouring a cement round root cellar (basement floor) was a real head scratcher.

This is so neat! I love it! Years ago there was an old grain mill for sale in our area, if my husband and I had the money we would have purchased it for a restaurant (think smokehouse) or even a home :)
