Hello,
I am currently considering building a 200 sqm (2,150 sq ft) house or hall in a completely different way. First, only the land will be purchased, then a two-story steel structure in a cube shape will be designed and built, which will be stable enough to not fall over. It will have no walls and no concrete floor on the first floor. How much would this cost? The price needs to be as low as possible.
I want to be able to freely express my creativity with this steel structure. At first, it will just be wrapped with a tarp to protect against cold, wind, and rust. Later on, stone walls, wooden boards, or glass panels for floors and walls will be gradually attached. There should be no fixed construction schedule, but building will take place step by step, depending on available funds and luck on eBay.
So, the question is purely about the cost of the steel beams alone. And what do the steel beams look like? How thick do they need to be?

Yes, probably in Bulgaria... Why are there questions about which material the architect wants? Because you can build your scaffolding from, for example, perforated metal sheets, steel beams (e.g., I-beams or U-channels), or a pipe structure. For materials, you can use plain iron with rust protection paint, high-quality stainless steel, or possibly some aluminum parts.
Without a plan, you won’t get reasonable answers.

Maybe it could be disguised as a barn for agricultural use or as a factory building in an industrial area, depending on the zoning plan. Otherwise, a pointless question.A barn or especially an industrial area wouldn’t be bad either. Would that be cheaper than a $200,000 house?

A barn or especially an industrial site would also be nice. Would that be cheaper than a 200,000€ house? A barn? Well, sure, right? You don’t need interior finishes, heating, walls... Okay, in Bulgaria – do they even have heating there?
The question remains: what do you want to use it for? A barn isn’t suitable for living.
Young and creative? More like unrealistic…
No matter what kind of building you plan, you have to apply for permission first. To do this, you need someone who takes responsibility (and is authorized to do so). This will already cost you money, and the authorized signatory will need a structural engineer for the building application – which costs more. No one will sign off on any steel supports for you…
Even commercial buildings are subject to requirements (depending on the development plan). Appearance, structure, emission values, and so on. You’ll quickly need 3 or 4 expert reports, and it becomes really expensive.
