After reviewing interior design harmonies for fall 2016 and winter 2017, we now turn to exterior designs that may capture your interest—at least, according to the latest construction trends.
Clean, simple straight lines appear to remain very much in style. A surprising effect comes through the simplicity of the lines, while neutral colours ranging from pale to dark warm grey, along with black, will once again take centre stage this year.
The new element, as with interior trends, is the thoughtful use of bold colours and textures as focal points.
Featured bold colours: orange, Danish gold, sapphire blue, fibre-cement look, lighthouse red and more.
Featured textures: wood effects, concrete, aluminum and steel.
Recommended exterior cladding: wood, wood-look products, textured vinyl, steel, brick and stone.
Combine colour and texture:
The goal: Give your home a gentle blend of neutral and vibrant colours with varied textures, creating a lively yet simple appearance that will stand the test of time.
- Use cladding in a neutral colour and emphasize the impact of complementary textures.
- Pair coloured vinyl siding with a more neutral textured cladding.
- Create the appearance of coloured natural wood by applying a semi-transparent colour to exterior cladding with a wood finish.
Many types, textures and colours of cladding are available on the market, including several new products for 2017. Ask us about our selections!
Combine quality with aesthetics
The goal: Offer high-quality, innovative cladding—new products on the market that continue to meet quality standards.
