Designing
Style:
Craftsman Emphasizes Artistry
|
|
 |
 |
| |
To
focus on an architectural style that embodies
artistic design, what better choice than one that
emerged from the American Arts and Crafts Movement?
With emphasis on originality, simple forms and
mixed materials, the Craftsman style captured
a new spirit of architectural beauty. And
|
|
|
| |
today's
vinyl siding helps keep that spirit alive and
thriving in the 21st Century.

Specifications Institute are among those who have approved

Just
the Facts
When you consider the facts, you'll discover that no
other exterior cladding matches vinyl siding's increasingly
diverse selection of profiles, shapes, colors, textures,
architectural trim and accessories.

Color
Retention Certification Extends Original Design Vision
 |
Ah,
glorious color. It's one of the most versatile
and powerful tools a designer can wield. Whether
colors complement or contrast, shout or whisper,
designers want the combinations they specify today
to proclaim that same vision years later. And
vinyl siding certified for color retention delivers
on that demand.
