Modern Craftsman Estate
This exterior design concept blends timeless Craftsman architecture with a crisp, contemporary palette to create an upscale yet inviting estate. The design emphasizes rich textures, sophisticated neutral tones, and premium materials.
Material & Color Palette
• Siding: The home features CanExel Ridgewood siding in Mist Grey, a soft neutral grey that highlights the architectural detailing while maintaining a clean, modern appearance.
• Roofing: Cumin shingles provide a deep charcoal contrast, adding dimension and grounding the lighter exterior palette.
• Stone Accent: Estate Stone in Slate wraps the foundation, outdoor kitchen, and patio pillars, introducing natural texture and a sense of permanence through its blend of muted greys and off-whites.
Windows, Architectural Details & Lighting
• Windows & Openings: Premium JELD-WEN JWC7500 Series windows feature clean contemporary profiles and a crisp white finish that complement the Mist Grey siding. Expansive glass areas maximize natural light, enhance views, and strengthen the connection between indoor and outdoor living.
• Timber Frame Accents: A covered patio with substantial wood trusses and exposed beams adds warmth and authentic Craftsman character to the rear façade.
• Fixtures: Matte black Larchmont wall lanterns provide clean architectural lines, while a Kichler glasslantern chandelier beneath the vaulted timber pavilion serves as a striking focal point and welcoming source of ambient light.
