Artisanal Crafted Wood Elevates Commercial Designs

Overview

Three landmark projects in downtown Jackson, Wyoming feature Montana Timber Products’ exterior and interior cladding. These developments utilize ranchwood™ Artisan, Charwood™, and AquaFir™, seamlessly merging traditional craftsmanship with modern architectural demands.

PROJECT 1: ARTS DISTRICT WEST CONDOS

Applications + Products

• Vertical Cladding: Charwood™ Midnight | 1×6 | Shiplap w/ ¼” reveal
• Vertical & Horizontal Cladding: ranchwood™ Artisan | Glacier Grey | Raked | 1×6 | Shiplap w/ ¼” reveal
• Grain Bin Siding: ranchwood™ Artisan | Glacier Grey | Raked | 2×4 | Square Edge

Species + Grade

• Douglas Fir (#2Btr)

The Vision

Arts District West is a modern urban development of ten luxury condominiums and mixed-use spaces draws on a striking aesthetic contrast between light and dark wood tones, offering both visual depth and connection to the regional landscape.

The Solution

Ranchwood™ Artisan in Glacier Grey was chosen for its weathered, rustic character, blending seamlessly with the mountain environment. The darker Charwood™ Midnight adds a bold, modern contrast, delivering a dynamic interplay between tones and textures.

Design Considerations

The design team prioritized material selections that would complement the rugged natural surroundings of Jackson while achieving a sophisticated finish. The cool Glacier Grey and deep Midnight tones provide a durable and refined exterior suited for the alpine environment.

PROJECT 2: CLOUDVEIL MARRIOTT

Applications + Products

• Vertical Cladding: ranchwood™ Artisan | Western Red Cedar (STK) | Dusk | Raked | 1×6 | Shiplap 
• Horizontal Cladding: Charwood™ | Douglas Fir (Clear Vertical Grain) | Custom Color | 1×6 | T&G

Fire Treatment

• All materials are Fireline pressure-treated for Class A fire-rated WUI compliance.

The Vision

This luxury hotel, part of Marriott’s Autograph Collection, was designed to fuse mountain serenity with Jackson’s western heritage. The design demanded a refined exterior that met both aesthetic and safety criteria.

The Solution

MTP’s Fireline protection was utilized to provide an elegant, eye-catching exterior that not only looks stunning but also meets fire safety precautions. There are two distinct siding elements that were created specifically for this project to meet the inspired aesthetic vision.

Design Considerations

Balancing fire safety with architectural beauty was paramount. The combination of Charwood™ and ranchwood™ Artisan delivers a design that reflects the rustic charm of Jackson Hole, while maintaining the luxury standards expected from a world-class hotel.

PROJECT 3: RUSTY PARROT LODGE & SPA

Applications + Products

Species + Grade

• Siding – Douglas Fir (#2btr) | Timbers – Douglas Fire (#1 FOHC)

The Vision

The revitalized Rusty Parrot Lodge aims to retain its original charm while introducing modern luxury. The use of natural wood materials was key to maintaining a strong connection to Jackson’s wilderness.

The Solution

AquaFir™ in Hazelnut and Brown was selected for its earthy, organic tones that resonate with the surrounding environment. The finishes bring a sense of warmth and depth, creating a lodge atmosphere that feels both contemporary and timeless.

Design Considerations

Durability and aesthetic harmony were critical. AquaFir’s finishes provide resilience against the elements while offering a luxurious feel. The interplay of Hazelnut and Brown enhances the architecture, grounding the design in its natural surroundings.  All exposed materials including siding, trim, fascia and timbers were expertly milled and prefinished by MTP to the exact specifications required by the project team.

These projects exemplify how Montana Timber Products can enhance architectural vision through thoughtful material choices, merging rustic textures with modern functionality. Each project illustrates the seamless blend of durability, fire resistance, and aesthetic beauty, demonstrating why MTP is a trusted partner for architects and builders in Jackson’s evolving landscape.

A Commercial Facade Stands out with Prefinished Natural Wood

PROJECT DETAILS

Location
Idaho

Project Type
Commercial

Applications
Exterior Vertical Cladding | 1”x8” | Shiplap

Product
AquaFir™ | Light Brown | Wire Brushed | STK Cedar

THE DESIGN VISION

In the competitive world of commercial spaces, making a lasting impression is key. For this dental office in Idaho, the facade wasn’t just an exterior; it was an opportunity to create warmth and distinction.

THE SOLUTION

Choosing AquaFir™ prefinished natural wood cladding wasn’t just about aesthetics; it was a strategic move. The light brown hue and wire brushed texture not only added visual appeal but also conveyed a sense of tranquility, setting the tone for a more inviting experience for patients.

By combining the natural warmth of wood with sleek black metal design elements, the result was a facade that stood out while still maintaining a professional demeanor.

MAINTENANCE MADE EASY

One of the advantages of opting for prefinished natural wood cladding like AquaFir™ is the ease of maintenance. Unlike traditional painting methods that require stripping, sanding, and reapplying coats of paint, maintaining wood cladding involves simple steps like cleaning, drying and reapplying. This not only saves time but also ensures that the facade maintains its allure for years to come.

WHY AQUAFIR™?

In the realm of commercial design, every detail matters. From creating a welcoming atmosphere to ensuring practical maintenance, AquaFir™ prefinished natural wood cladding proves to be a versatile and efficient choice for elevating commercial facades.

Product

ranchwood™ | Eastern | Circle Sawn | Douglas Fir

THE VISION

In many cases, municipal facilities, particularly wastewater treatment plants, tend to blend in as standard, uninspired commercial structures. However, in Big Sky Montana, they aspired to set themselves apart. Their goal was not only to construct a cutting-edge facility but also to infuse the building with the essence of its setting, a place of rugged peaks and untamed beauty.

THE SOLUTION

Choosing natural wood for the exterior of this municipal building was an obvious choice. The ranchwood™ product, in Eastern color with a circle sawn texture, perfectly encapsulated the rustic elegance that defines Montana’s character. It provided a unique and distinctive touch to a commercial space that would have otherwise been ordinary.
