Working with Tess, we have settled on a design theme for the siding on the River House. We will use a slate-colored vertical board and baton for the principal siding component with horizontal tongue and groove accents in warm red-toned wood material. Not fully illustrated is the masonry foundation at the base of the entire structure which will also cover the entire walkout basement wall. This rendering is missing the east wing roof but conveys the basic color/design scheme. It has been fun experimenting with the various possibilities for blocking and color combinations.
