As I've looked through designs and plans and exterior finishes, I've really gravitated towards a few finishes that I like contrasted against each other. The only material that will need more frequent care is the wood. If I can find something that's a reasonable replacement that is more resilient and durable, I will certainly consider it. Really shooting for low maintenance on the exterior.
The picture above shows an example of these finishes together.
I'm planning to run the corrugated siding vertically instead of horizontally.
The picture above shows the ideal wood finish I'm looking for. Love the contrast with the metal siding.
The above picture shows a bigger field of the Hardiepanel siding in the charcoal color I have an affinity for.
And finally, who can argue with the red doors as a contrast to all those finsishes?!!
I'm excited to see how things actually turn out on the cabin. No telling what comprimises I'll have to make to stay with in budget and keep things workable.
Concrete, corrugated metal siding, Hardieboard siding, and non-lap natural wood siding (perhaps redwood).
