Responding to a Fiery Landscape: Peace of Mind with FX LumberGuard XT

In the fire-prone landscape of the Santa Monica Mountains, prioritizing safety is just as crucial as design. Montana Timber Products offers a variety of fire protection treatments, FX LumberGuard XT was the choice for this project. This advanced fire retardant is a non-toxic, eco-friendly treatment that penetrates into the wood fibers, significantly reducing the flammability of the Douglas Fir siding and gates. By integrating this powerful protection, the design team ensured that The Ranch is not only beautiful but also protected, offering the homeowners a profound sense of security and peace of mind in their high-risk fire environment.

DESIGN BRIEF

Elevating Mountain Modernism with ranchwood™ Artisan

The Carmell project called for natural wood accents that deliver clean lines and a unified exterior aesthetic, while ensuring lasting durability and architectural elegance. To achieve this, the authentic reclaimed-wood appearance of the ranchwood™ Artisan Ash product line was carefully selected, perfectly blending timeless character with modern sophistication.

Throughout the entire build, Montana Timber Products’ dedicated sales representative worked hand in hand with Biltmore Co., collaborating closely to meet their unique design requirements, construction timelines, and budget objectives. This partnership ensured that material selection, delivery, and finishing met the highest standards without compromising schedule or financial targets.

Montana Timber Products supplied a wide range of ranchwood™ Artisan Douglas Fir profiles, precisely milled with raked textures and expertly finished for a consistent, high-performance exterior solution. The variety of profiles and dimensions allowed for tailored application across siding, trim, fascia, soffit, and outdoor living spaces emphasizing a harmonious design language from the home’s exterior to its functional details.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

Authentic Reclaimed Look with Enhanced Performance

The ranchwood™ Artisan line intentionally replicates the nuances of reclaimed lumber, offering subtle variations in color and texture that add depth and character to The Carmell’s exterior. The knotty Douglas Fir used throughout the project brings additional authenticity, ensuring the façade never feels flat or artificial. The raked texture and Ash finish achieve a warm yet modern look that works well for the home’s contemporary mountain design.

A blend of 1×8 shiplap siding and square-edge trim creates crisp, defined lines and strong visual contrasts, bringing out the home’s architectural intent. Tongue & groove soffits and porch ceilings not only provide architectural detail and a welcoming transition to outdoor spaces, but also extend the coordinated Ash finish for a unified look. Finished garage doors and fascia in the same Artisan Ash material maintain visual consistency on high-exposure surfaces.

These practical product choices help the home feel approachable while maintaining a refined presence. The prefinished, high-performance Seal-Once coating ensures durability and weather resistance, so The Carmell’s appearance will endure through all seasons. This integrated approach showcases how ranchwood™ Artisan’s knotty Douglas Fir brings together modern lines, subtle rusticity, and lasting performance for an inviting, contemporary exterior.

THE SOLUTION

Montana Timber Products delivered a suite of solutions from two distinguished product lines—ranchwood™ Artisan and AquaFir™—all crafted from  sustainably sourced Douglas Fir. By combining raked, smooth, and re-sawn textures in a coordinated palette, this custom A-frame home boasts a cohesive yet multidimensional façade that celebrates both innovative design and regional character.

  • AquaFir™: Crafted for versatility, ideal for sleek, natural wood exterior detailing that complements contemporary architecture.

• Douglas Fir: Selected for its sustainability, structural dependability, and striking grain, offering both visual appeal and exceptional price value.
• Custom-Milled Precision: Custom-milled siding, trim, and soffits ensure a precise fit and perfect color coordination, resulting in visually clean and architecturally rigorous transitions between planes and materials.
• Built to Endure: All wood is prefinished with high-performance, Seal-Once water-based sealant, providing industry-leading resilience against moisture, sun, and seasonal changes. This finish is also ideal for interior applications, ensuring a healthy living environment. This commitment to quality ensures longevity and beauty for years to come.

A Wood Siding Envelope to Complement Authentic Reclaimed Timbers

Cushing Terrell and Gallatin Construction envisioned a Flathead Lake retreat that balanced modern architectural lines with the area’s natural beauty. The primary challenge was selecting a wood siding package that would seamlessly complement the home’s existing, authentic reclaimed structural timbers, which featured not just one, but two distinct color tones.

At Montana Timber Products, we meet the needs of our clients, one job at a time. This project presented a unique opportunity for our ranchwood™ Artisan line, which was meticulously crafted for this very purpose. Three specific finish combinations were selected—Glacier Grey siding, Dusk trim, and Ash for interior ceilings. This unified aesthetic not only honors the home’s heritage but also provides the durability required for Montana’s demanding lakeside climate.

Have a complex design vision or a unique material challenge? We invite you to put our expertise to the test.

THE SOLUTION

ranchwood™ Artisan Finishes | Premium Western Red Cedar Siding

Montana Timber Products delivered a complete wood package featuring three carefully coordinated ranchwood™ Artisan finishes. The Glacier Grey siding paired with Dusk trim creates subtle contrast and architectural depth across both the main house and barn. Inside, the Ash-finished ceiling brightens living spaces while showcasing the craftsmanship of the timber framework.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

Authentic Wood Character, Modern Reliability
The ranchwood™ Artisan series replicates the subtle variation and weathered beauty of genuine reclaimed wood without the sourcing challenges of antique materials. This approach delivered the timeless aesthetic that harmonizes with Flathead Lake’s historic architecture while providing the consistency and performance of kiln-dried Western Red Cedar.

Seamless Integration
The multi-step ranchwood™ Artisan finishing process ensures each new board complements the depth and patina of the home’s reclaimed structural elements, creating a unified exterior that tells Montana’s building story.

Built to Last
All materials feature Seal-Once protection—an industry-leading, non-toxic waterproofing system that provides superior moisture resistance and environmental safety. This advanced finish ensures the home maintains its beauty and structural integrity through every Montana season.

THE RESULT

Premium Lakefront Construction: Durable Wood Siding Package for Montana Climate

The Mountain Modern Lake Home stands as a testament to the power of combining contemporary architecture with authentic Montana materials. It’s a home that is as inviting as it is enduring, perfectly suited for lakeside living on Flathead Lake. Discover how Montana Timber Products can bring your vision to life.

THE VISION

A Modern Retreat with Fire-Safe Craftsmanship

Deschutes Custom Homes embarked on a mission to create a contemporary mountain residence that seamlessly marries natural textures with clean, modern lines. A critical aspect of their vision was meeting stringent fire safety requirements without compromising on design. The objective was clear: craft a home that feels timeless and deeply connected to its surroundings, with wood elements that not only echo the high-desert landscape but also stand up to its unique environmental challenges.

THE SOLUTION

Cohesive Natural Wood Palette with Class A Fire Protection

Montana Timber Products supplied a full exterior and interior wood package, all factory-finished with ranchwood™ Yellowstone and treated with FX LumberGuard XT, a transparent, Class A topical fire retardant. This approach ensures each element-from the wire-brushed cedar siding to the resawn Douglas Fir beams-delivers both visual warmth and critical fire resistance. The result is a seamless, modern exterior and interior envelope, unified by color and texture, and engineered for lasting performance in wildfire-prone regions.

FX LumberGuard XT provides permanent, ASTM- and IBC-compliant fire protection with minimal impact to the natural look or workability of the wood, supporting both code compliance and design intent.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

Balancing Modern Aesthetics and Wildfire Resilience

• Design Integration: The close collaboration between Deschutes Custom Homes, CKA Architects, and Montana Timber Products resulted in a home where every wood detail is intentional. From the elegant vertical shiplap siding to the exposed rafter tails, each element contributes to the overall aesthetic. The ranchwood™ Yellowstone finish was specifically chosen for its ability to highlight the wood’s inherent grain and texture, and its harmonious integration with the surrounding high desert landscape.

• Material Cohesion: Utilizing a single finish and fire treatment across all exterior and interior wood elements creates a visually unified look, contributing to the home’s contemporary appeal and simplifying installation, as well as, long-term maintenance.

• Fire Safety: FX LumberGuard XT is a non-toxic, non-corrosive, and environmentally safe fire retardant, meets rigorous  Class A standards, offering  peace of mind for homeowners in wildfire-prone areas.

Westgate Modern stands as a compelling testament to the power of combining natural wood beauty with advanced architectural envelope protection. It’s a home that is both visually stunning and impeccably prepared for the challenges of its environment, truly embodying the spirit of high desert luxury living.

THE VISION

Elevated Warmth Tucked Away In Hi-Desert Pines

The homeowners wanted a home that radiated the inviting character of natural wood, but with a crisp, modern edge. Their vision was to create a space that felt both welcoming and sophisticated—where the beauty of wood could be celebrated without feeling heavy or old-fashioned.

THE SOLUTION

AquaFir™ The Art of Adaptability

This is our first design story featuring AquaFir™ in Owyhee. This brown, finished in a smooth texture, proved to be the ideal choice for this project. Its versatility allowed the design team to use the same high-quality Douglas Fir across multiple profiles and applications, from horizontal siding to board and batten, trim, fascia, and even garage door headers. This continuity of material creates a cohesive look, while the semi-transparent finish lets the natural grain and knots of the wood take center stage.

Unlike engineered products that can sometimes feel artificial, AquaFir™ brings an unmistakable authenticity. The prefinished surface not only enhances the wood’s natural character but also provides lasting protection—delivering both beauty and durability in one package. The adaptability of AquaFir™ meant the design could shift seamlessly between traditional and contemporary elements, giving the home a unique personality that stands out in any setting.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

Enduring Natural Wood Appeal, Practical Value

Lasting Style – AquaFir™ prefinished Douglas Fir delivers a look that’s both fresh and timeless, infusing the home with natural warmth and a refined finish that sets it apart.

Built-In Value – Opting for prefinished AquaFir™ Douglas Fir not only ensures lasting value but also simplifies the building process with ready-to-install materials, eliminating the need for on-site staining and saving valuable time and resources.

Design Freedom – AquaFir™’s remarkable versatility empowered the design team to tailor every detail to the homeowners’ vision, resulting in a home that inspires admiration today and for years to come.
