THE VISION

THOUGHTFULLY CURATED EXTERIOR DESIGN MATERIALS

The Lookout at Lake Chelan represents a thoughtfully curated residential community designed to foster familial connections amidst the stunning natural backdrop of Lake Chelan. This development seamlessly integrates modern architectural elements with the rugged beauty of Washington’s high desert landscape.

The architectural vision for these residences strikes a delicate balance between contemporary design and environmental resilience. The structures are engineered to withstand the region’s intense solar exposure and significant temperature fluctuations while maintaining a sophisticated aesthetic that complements the natural surroundings.

THE SOLUTION

INTEGRATING NATURAL WOOD ACCENTS ON HOUSE EXTERIOR

The project’s success lies in its judicious use of real wood accents, carefully integrated to enhance both form and function.

Wood Accent Placement and Design

By strategically incorporating natural wood elements in select siding and soffit applications on home exteriors, the design achieves an elevated visual appeal while minimizing maintenance requirements – a crucial consideration in this challenging climate.

This approach introduces a welcoming warmth to the home. Whether it’s a rustic touch or a modern twist, wood accents can redefine the style of your house exterior, making it both inviting and distinctive.

Design Considerations

• Solar Orientation: Given the area’s high percentage of annual sunshine, UV exposure was a primary concern for maintaining the wood’s visual integrity over time. To maximize longevity and reduce maintenance intervals, wood applications were predominantly focused on north, east, and west-facing elevations, strategically avoiding southern exposures where UV impact is most severe.
• Protected Installations: Soffits and covered patio areas were identified as ideal locations for wood applications. These protected zones allow for incorporating natural wood elements that tie the overall design together while significantly reducing exposure to harmful UV rays, thus extending the lifespan of the finishes.

This project serves as a testament to the versatility of wood in contemporary architecture, demonstrating that when applied with precision and foresight, natural materials can enhance the visual appeal and performance of modern residential designs.

THE VISION

The homeowners wanted to create a rustic Craftsman-style home that embraced natural wood materials with a focus on the authentic character of circle-sawn wood.

THE SOLUTION

To capture the essence of the Craftsman style, Western Red Cedar with a circle-sawn texture was used throughout. Horizontal ranchwood™ Tackroom shiplap was combined with vertical AquaFir™ Battleship board and batten, creating the hallmark mix of textures and profiles typical of the Craftsman aesthetic. Circle-sawn cedar was featured in the fascia, trim, and ceilings, maintaining the rustic texture central to the design.

Design Considerations

• Craftsman Design Elements: The combination of horizontal and vertical cedar siding, along with exposed cedar trim and fascia, reflected the classic Craftsman emphasis on authentic natural materials.
• Western Red Cedar: STK Cedar was chosen for its durability in Iowa’s climate and its ability to complement the rustic, handcrafted design while offering long-lasting performance.
• Circle-Sawn Texture: The consistent use of circle-sawn cedar throughout the home emphasized the rustic craftsmanship, enhancing both the home’s warmth and architectural details.

From the rugged West to the heart of the Midwest, we have solutions to bring your design to life!

THE VISION

In many cases, municipal facilities, particularly wastewater treatment plants, tend to blend in as standard, uninspired commercial structures. However, in Big Sky Montana, they aspired to set themselves apart. Their goal was not only to construct a cutting-edge facility but also to infuse the building with the essence of its setting, a place of rugged peaks and untamed beauty.

THE SOLUTION

Choosing natural wood for the exterior of this municipal building was an obvious choice. The ranchwood™ product, in Eastern color with a circle sawn texture, perfectly encapsulated the rustic elegance that defines Montana’s character. It provided a unique and distinctive touch to a commercial space that would have otherwise been ordinary.

From Common Facade to Rustic Showstopper

Project Details

Location
Minnesota

Project Type
Private Residence

Applications
Vertical Siding: 1×6″ and 1×8″ | Shiplap with ⅛” reveal
Horizontal Siding: 2×10″ | Wire Brushed

Product
ranchwood™ | Western + Tackroom + Yellowstone | Douglas Fir

The Vision

The owner of this Minnesota home wanted to transform a common engineered façade into a character-rich rancher home.

The Solution

This project utilized a variety of our mill capabilities with ranging textures, profiles, dimensions, and finish colorations. The vertical siding was both 1×6 and 1×8 boards milled in a shiplap profile with a 1/8” reveal and circle sawn texture. For the horizontal siding, they selected 2×12 boards in Pioneer texture.

This home had porch columns in place, so rather than replace them, we provided specified dimensioned materials to enable the fabrication of wood post wraps.

Vertical siding was used in the gables and was finished with a combination of tackroom and western colors.

Note: The 2×12 siding in Pioneer texture utilized chinking between the boards for a natural log appearance.  We can mill many variations of this look to meet your design scope without needing to build with full logs.
