Ronnie Steiner is a farmer, smitten husband, and father of 6 beautiful children.

From an early age, he has been passionate about crafts and has always loved being in touch with nature. Together with his wife, he runs a farm just outside of Houston.

Seven years ago, after the birth of Olivia, his sixth daughter, he faced a problem: the house he lived in with his family was too small. At the time, he was a laborer in a construction company and did not have the money to be able to move to a bigger place.

At this time, an opportunity arose for him to take over his father's farm, who was now too old to carry on the business. With his wife, Ronnie decided to turn his life around and finally do a job that would allow him to be in touch with nature. One problem remained, however: where to live.

After a few sleepless nights spent thinking about a solution, the idea he had been looking for came to him. On the farm, there was an old barn, now disused. Maybe it can be renovated and made habitable, he thought, and well, the rest is history.

Today Ronnie lives together with his family in the beautiful barndominium they built. He and his wife are happy because they can have a shop/house combination. The children also are happy because they finally have plenty of space to play and be together. A win-win situation.

The book How to Build your Barndominium is the guide Ronnie wished he had seven years ago, in which he put all his knowledge about building the barndo of your dreams.
