Exterior view of a rust-brown metal-clad gable roof building by
An exterior precedent featuring a monochromatic standing-seam metal roof and siding system that tucks low into a rugged, tree-studded landscape.
- What we like about this project
- The wall and roof share the exact same profile and finish, reading as a unified folded shell.

- Geometry
- Simple gabled massing with a continuous standing-seam metal roof wrapping into vertical wall siding.
- Facade system
