Aquafir™ | Cascade | Smooth | Cedar Charwood™ | Midnight | Cedar
THE VISION
Amidst the arid expanse of Arizona’s desert, the design aspiration for this residence was clear – to harmonize the architectural elements with the warmth of natural wood. The homeowner sought to cultivate an atmosphere that not only encapsulated the region’s essence but also radiated a sense of refined elegance.
THE SOLUTION
In pursuit of this vision, Western Red Cedar emerged as the natural solution of choice. Possessing inherent qualities that effortlessly withstand the demanding Arizona climate, Cedar evokes a sense of timeless splendor while mirroring the rugged grace of the desert landscape.
The pairing of the dark and the light – Charwood™ Midnight and Aquafir™ Cascade – was a deliberate selection, carefully curated to instill the exterior and interior with a captivating narrative. This aesthetic interplay not only visually connects the spaces but also serves as a testament to the nuanced design sensibilities at play.

Product
Charwood™ | Tiger & Midnight | Douglas Fir
THE VISION
The design intention of this structure was to create a modern cabin with blurred lines between inside and outside spaces. Contrasting light and dark shou sugi ban was selected to energize the living quarters and calm the resting spaces. The building location is perfectly situated on a bouldered bench in a secluded valley of Central Washington.
THE SOLUTION
Midnight and Tiger Charwood™ were intentionally selected for a distinctive natural interior and exterior envelope on this secluded cabin retreat. The divergent char colors of this shou sugi ban inspired product instills a stunning contrastive aesthetic that flows naturally with the beauty that surrounds it. The line between inside and outside is ambiguous, allowing a cozy inside feel while surrounded by a striking mountainscape.

The 1800’s gold rush is responsible for laying the foundation to much of the cities, infrastructure, and shipping hubs of the Western United States. Gold prospecting drove Western Expansion and the wealth that it generated trickled down through many aspects of life and supported the creation of many industries. Few people were successful in the hunt for gold, yet many found prosperity in adjacent industries such as forestry to support the booming development. This week’s featured build pays tribute to a part of American history with a unique mining themed resort home in Washington state.
The designers of this project appropriately chose Montana Timber Products as their supplier of rustic wood siding and timbers. Montana Timber Products carries multiple product lines of reclaimed barn wood and reclaimed barn wood alternatives to provide you with the appropriate degree of rustic appeal and material choice.
As exhibited by the photos, there is a very heavy focus on structural Douglas Fir timbers throughout this project to emulate the roll that structural timbers played in the creation of mine shaft infrastructure, rail cars, and all other modes of transport involved in mining. The siding throughout the project features a mix of Montana Timber Products ranchwood™ and AquaFir™ product lines. The dark brown (Eastern) vertical 1×8 and 1×10 Shiplap siding featured in the first photo above is part of the ranchwood™ product line; Montana Timber Products’ flagship product.
The photo above illustrates the dedication the homeowners and designers had to creating an authentic mining tribute home by creating a mock mine entrance way emerging from the basement of the home. The Wire Brushed, horizontal, Custom Gray, Channel Rustic siding and the vertical, Custom Beige, Shiplap siding are part of the AquaFir™ product line; a slightly more mono-chromatic offering relative to the ranchwood™ product line.
Whether you are looking for siding, beams, flooring, or interior accents, Montana Timber Products offers a solution for your rustic needs. All Montana Timber Products’ prefinished wood siding utilizes Seal-Once, a 100% NO VOC waterproofer with a 10 year limited warranty against water ingress.
