4 maneras de mejorar el exterior de una casa con revestimientos y molduras

Los revestimientos y molduras LP® SmartSide® se diseñaron especialmente para ofrecerles a los constructores la versatilidad de implementar una variedad de estilos arquitectónicos para crear una estética diversa. "La versatilidad es una prioridad porque cuando es más fácil trabajar con los productos, se puede hacer más en términos de combinación de diferentes texturas y productos", señala Joe Nitti, copropietario de Nitti Development, una empresa de construcción con sede en Chicago.

Here are a few ways to enhance the exterior of new construction and remodeling projects using siding and trim.

Breaking Things Up

Few buyers want a cookie-cutter exterior that looks like every other house on the block. Use of different siding styles breaks up an exterior and gives builders a chance to add character that draws in curb-appeal-loving consumers. The LP SmartSide siding product portfolio – which includes lap, panel and shake siding, trim, fascia and soffit – gives you and your customers a wide spectrum of style choices. 

Adding Texture & Depth

A variety of exterior textures creates personality and visual interest. Texture turns the boring exterior into the home that turns heads! Different areas of the country are currently trending toward different textures.

Making a Statement With Trim

It’s easy for builders to add visual sophistication with trim. Well-chosen trim around windows and doors makes them appear larger and more inviting. LP® SmartSide® Trim & Fascia products come in different lengths, widths, profiles and substrates, giving builders even greater options to vary the look of an exterior and achieve any look.

Wowing With Color Combinations

“To add a more modern visual appeal, you can contrast siding and trim with different bold colors,” says Nitti. “This could include a mix of contrasting bright white tones and deeper, darker blues/grey tones, like those used on the Berteau Development. Additionally, having different siding combinations on different elevations can add a sharper look overall.”

“Having a wide variety of color options is key to making homes truly unique, especially many modern builds that are more narrow in structure,” Nitti continues.
