Summer light settles over steel profiles in the forest

As the sun sets and light lingers in the treetops, this property is illuminated by nature’s golden glow. Amid the hanging birch, prickly pine and swaying beech of the forest, you'll find this combination of farmhouse and barn, both of which have managed to blend nature with modern steel profiles.

Roof cladding and rib sheets might not be the first things that come to mind when reading a description like this. Perhaps you’re more likely to think of idyllic paintings like P.C. Skovgaard’s “Beech Forest in May”. But here, it’s steel profiles that emerge in the vibrant natural canvas.

Nature and steel come together in a clearing among the trees

Step into the woods and approach the property’s barn, and you'll find a building that – despite its impressive size – doesn’t take anything away from the natural setting. The barn is clad in a combination of dark wood and black DS Rib Sheets 22-270. The timeless look of the sheets gives the building a classic appearance that will always complement its surroundings.

Turn your gaze towards the farmhouse, and you’ll see a building that has found its place in nature’s grandeur. The farmhouse roof in DS Nordic Click Seam 475 catches the light from the evening sun, and the sleek colour Dark Silver stands out beautifully against the natural backdrop.

A green coat for a nature-surrounded building

Both the barn facade and the farmhouse roof profiles are made of GreenCoat® steel from SSAB, pre-coated with a finish based on Swedish rapeseed oil. Choosing GreenCoat® ensures that your profiles retain both their appearance and durability over time, so you can be confident that your building will remain both functional and visually appealing for many years. You won’t need to worry about frequent maintenance or wear – ensuring a long-lasting look, come rain or shine.

Many of our profiles are available in GreenCoat® steel from SSAB, which, in addition to strength and durability, also comes in a wide range of colours. At DS Stålprofil, we see projects in many different shades of steel, and you can find inspiration from them on our inspiration page.
