And then with a modular addon for the side, it takes over the function of the Dairy building making cheese and butter etc:

Ill also make the main milking building upgradeable, for those that need the ultimate in moo juice extraction.
Theres a bit of fantasy about this design, i know. I like to do that from time to time.
Edit:
So i just realised that you can put 2 of the smaller dairy side buildings next to each other to make a double dairy building barn ... thing... [img]<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/smile.png[/img]/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" title=":)" width="20" />

ShockPuppet, yes the modualr idea does give you so many options. your milk unit looks like an old steam boiler.lol. the only idea i come up with is an old milk cooler for milk cans or an ice house. but that does not help production.hmm what bout a shipping platform with the barrels instead??how much more production do others want? i like the texture of your barn doors,but could it be painted a faded red??? or use the wood gain of the doors to the walls under that red?
Now i miss only some ruins or something, and i will got perfect city builder. [img]<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/wink.png[/img]/emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" title=";)" width="20" />
oh am good at hang ideas. but i dont want to upset or confuse modders who work so hard.
ok so i did an update [img]<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/smile.png[/img]/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" title=":)" width="20" />
Regular building in the front, and Upgraded at the back. Now theres no requirement to have the milk canister visual if you dont want.
While i was at it I added a cold storage with a large vat of milk inside, door held open by a rod and hook. Im going to put a simple weather vane on top of that roof.

Nice. Can I suggest making the milk boiler thing an optional extra? It looks a bit scary. [img]<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/58462e7ee2574_EmojisApplebyKawaiiDarkToxic114.png[/img][img]<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/ohmy.png[/img]/emoticons/ohmy@2x.png 2x" title=":o" width="20" />
The red and white looks good but perhaps a brown version might also be nice. There aren't many red and white buildings but there are lots of brown/grey buildings. Or are you planning a whole set of red and white farm buildings?
