Shake

"Handcrafted Authenticity"

Shakes Have always been esteemed by those who believe a home should be one with its natural setting. Bungalow and other traditional styles come to mind. Split along the grain, cedar Shakes are deeply textured in a way that sets off an interplay of light and shadow. The sun moves across the sky, and the light changes the house, as it does the landscape. Architectural shakes are the only other way to capture this beauty.

What you will see are the natural traits captured.  Random marks of a mill saw, and a wood grain of hand split cedar.

What you will not see are seams.  Even when you know where to look they are difficult to find.  This is what makes Architectural shakes the most realistic vinyl siding available anywhere.

It could very well be that you've driven by a house with Architectural Shakes and assumed it was natural wood.  It is truly that realistic. Approach the house, and you'll see a defined texture of natural grain.  As the sun moves across the sky the appearance of the house actually changes over the course of the day..
