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.

To bring this vision to life, Charwood™ products were chosen. For the exterior, Charwood™ Midnight and Charwood Tiger, inspired by Shou Sugi Ban, were used to create a striking contrast that complemented the stone accents. Inside, the warm and natural wood features of Charwood™ added a welcoming ambiance, turning this home into a serene and inviting retreat.

THE VISION

Amidst the arid expanse of Arizona’s desert, the design aspiration for this residence was clear – to harmonize the architectural elements with the warmth of natural wood. The homeowner sought to cultivate an atmosphere that not only encapsulated the region’s essence but also radiated a sense of refined elegance.

The pairing of the dark and the light – Charwood™ Midnight and Aquafir™ Cascade – was a deliberate selection, carefully curated to instill the exterior and interior with a captivating narrative. This aesthetic interplay not only visually connects the spaces but also serves as a testament to the nuanced design sensibilities at play.
